Murray sacré à Shanghai

L’Ecossais Andy Murray a remporté dimanche à Shangai son sixième titre de l’année en s’imposant facilement en finale face à Roberto Bautista, (7-6 (7/1), 6-1), qui avait réalisé l’exploit d’éliminer Novak Djokovic en demi-finale.

Depuis deux semaines, plus rien ni personne ne semble pouvoir stopper Andy Murray qui a enchaîné un sans-faute à Pékin et à Shangai. Le Britannique a écrasé le Masters 1000 chinois en surclassant en finale l’Espagnol Roberto Bautista, tombeur surprise du N.1 Novak Djokovic la veille (6-4, 6-4).

Mathématiquement, il peut coiffer Djokovic en fin de saison

Lundi, Murray reviendra à 2.415 points de Djokovic au classement technique. A la Race, le classement qui compte en fin de saison, il ne sera qu’à 915 unités du Serbe. Mathématiquement, Murray peut donc devenir N.1 cette année, à condition de tout gagner dans les trois derniers tournois où il est inscrit: à Vienne (24-30 octobre, 500 pts), Paris (31 oct. – 6 novembre, 1000 pts) et lors du Masters (13-20 novembre, 1500 pts pour un sans faute). Un scénario peu réaliste. Mais le simple fait que Djokovic, que l’on décrivait comme intouchable, soit mathématiquement menacé, est un événement en soi !
