The first set is won by Milos 7-5 against Andy.
They exchange breaks early in the second, on serve now.

Murray wins the second set in a tight TB. Onto the third.

Hoping for Murray here. Since Djoker and Fed will be compared with each other like Fed and Nadal this is quietly a huge tournament for Novak. He can equal a couple Fed marks if he wins this tourney (5 years at #1 and 6 YEC's.

Raonic has got much stronger without me noticing. A bit more skill at the net and he'll be really concerning

I think he's improved a lot but the footwork is not too strong. And his serve seems less effective in tiebreaks. If he can stay injury free he can trouble anyone

I am both a Nole and Milos supporter, so we are in different camps, obviously.

He most likely will finish the year ranked number 3, so that should be caused by some improvements.

Me too. Would like a Milos Novak final. Milos came close to beating Murray - I think it was Australia but was injured. Felt so sorry for him then, he deserved the win. This would mean such a lot to him if he can hang onto this one.

He actually finishes ahead of Stan? I guess I shouldn't be too surprised since Stan did nothing aside from USO this year. Pretty sad year overall aside from the top 2. Roger playing like a clown all year would've finished top 3

A sudden loss in concentration for Milos, makes a few UE and hands over a break to Andy, who did not have to do much.
Andy now serves for the match

He just passed Stan this week. Unless Nishikori wins the whole event, Raonic finishes third this year.
