Novak Djokovic says he is thrilled to have qualified for a history-making showdown against Andy Murray at the ATP World Tour Finals on Sunday night. The worlds top two players will square off at the O2 Arena with both the Tour Finals title and the end-of-year world number 1 ranking at stake in a winner-takes-all contest which will bring the tennis season to an amazing climax.The pair had contrasting semis on Saturday, Murray winning an epic three-and-a-half-hour clash against Milos Raonic while Djokovic breezed past Kei Nishikori 6-1 6-1 in just over an hour. And the Serb now has an opportunity to reclaim the top spot in the rankings, Murray having taken over after the Paris Masters a fortnight ago. Watch the winning point as Novak Djokovic beat Kei Nishikori in straight sets Fresh from defeating Nishikori, Djokovic said: I must say that Im very honoured to be part of history.I hear this is the first time in the history of the ATP that the two best players are deciding the rankings in the last match. That is something we should all be conscious of.This is one of the biggest matches we will ever play against each otherI cant expect anything except to really get myself in the right state of mind and try to perform as well as I did tonight. Thats going to be my only goal.

Hopefully Ill be able to stick with it and perform as well as I did in my last couple of matches tomorrow. Andy Murray is through to the final of the World Tour Finals after beating Milos Raonic As well as his epic tussle with Raonic, Murray beat Nishikori in a gruelling clash earlier in the week, but Djokovic is not expecting to face a weakened foe.Andy, you cannot take anything away from what he did in the last four, five months, said Djokovic.Yes, we havent played against each other, but his level was phenomenal. He deserves to be in the situation where he is at the moment. Hes No. 1 of the world, and deservedly so.Hes had 20-plus matches won and he got himself out of trouble today because of that confidence.

The 37-year-old Wolf, making a comeback from the second Tommy John surgery of his career, allowed three hits and one run. He struck out seven, walked one and won for the first time since he pitched Baltimore past Tampa Bay on Sept. 13, 2012. The Rays fell to 0-7 on their eight-game trip. Theyre 12 games below .500 for the first time since 2007, and their record (23-35) is the worst in the American League. Four Miami relievers completed the six-hitter, and Steve Cishek pitched a perfect ninth for his 12th save in 13 chances. The Marlins snapped a streak of four consecutive home losses as they started a four-game home-and-home series against their intrastate rivals. The Rays went 0 for 5 with runners in scoring position. Theyve scored six runs in their past five games. Alex Cobb (1-3) paid dearly for a rocky start. The Marlins scored three times in the first, when their first four batters reached. Casey McGehee hit a two-run single, and a bases-loaded double play scored another run. Cobb then settled down and shut out Miami over the next five innings, but the Rays couldnt rally. Tampa Bay starters remained winless in the past 15 games, the teams longest such streak ssince 2006.dddddddddddd Wolf (1-1) didnt pitch in 2013 and was making his second start of this year. His fastball registered only in the upper 80s (mph), but he had command of his breaking pitches and struck out five of the first eight batters he faced. The Rays finally broke through in the fifth on an RBI double by Desmond Jennings, but Wolf retired the next three hitters. Wolf was signed as a free agent last month after ace Jose Fernandez was sidelined by a season-ending elbow injury. The left-hander improved his career record to 133-118.
