Andy Murray defeated Stan Wawrinka to surge through to the semi-finals of the ATP World Tour Finals, closer to a showdown with Novak Djokovic


London: Andy Murray defeated Stan Wawrinka to surge through to the semi-finals of the ATP World Tour Finals, closer to a showdown with Novak Djokovic.

After winning his opening two matches against Marin Cilic and Kei Nishikori, the Scot knew a set against Wawrinka would be enough.

He went one better, clinching a 6-4, 6-2 victory to set up a rematch of the Wimbledon final against Milos Raonic today.Should Murray come through that, and Djokovic defeat Nishikori in the other semi-final, then tomorrow's final would also be a straight shoot-out for world number one.

It was also a 22nd consecutive victory for Murray, equalling his career-best streak from this summer, which included titles at Queen's and Wimbledon and Olympic gold.
