Murray outclassed by fantastic Federer

Andy Murray will need to beat Fernando Verdasco on Thursday to reach the semi-finals of the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals after going down 3-6 6-3 6-1 to Roger Federer in tonight’s blockbuster Group A clash at London’s O2 Arena.

The British number one played superbly to take the first set but Federer was in terrific form and Murray simply had no answer in the second half of the match. Victory means Federer is certain to finish the year as world number one.
