Beijing: Andy Murray is hoping to cap his strong season with a late-season run at Novak Djokovic's long-held number one ranking as he arrived in Beijing y­esterday.


If Murray—who skipped Beijing last year—can scoop his fifth title of the season at the China Open, he would close the 4,695 point gap between him and the number one by 1,000 points. "I think obviously trying to reach number one is a goal.


It's something I would like to do for the first time, which is maybe more of a motivation for me than some of the guys that have been there before," Murray said.
