ATP World Tour Finals Preview

The top eight players will square off in the final tournament of the year at the ATP Tour Finals on Sunday.  Group A consists of Novak Djokovic, Andy Murray, Tomas Berdych and David Ferrer.  Djokovic has had an incredible year, but has been showing the effects of it in the last couple of weeks.  I expect him to progress through to the semi-finals but no further.  I fancy Murray to have the beating of Djokovic, but he could struggle against Tomas Berdych who defeated him in a three set epic in Paris last week.  I have a lot of respect for David Ferrer, but I cannot see him causing many problems on this surface.

Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Mardy Fish will contest Group B.  The big match will be between Nadal and Tsonga - I predict Federer to win his three matches and an injury-affected Fish to lose all of his making this tie the decisive one.  There are many question marks surrounding Nadal who missed the Paris Masters, but I think he will be fresh, fighting fit and will have enough to get past Tsonga to qualify in second place from Group B.

I'm going for a Federer Murray final... with Murray triumphant! I'm looking forward to the week ahead and will be blogging when I get the chance too : )
