It's now going to happen after Milos Raonic pulled out of his semi-final with Murray. With the strength of the opposition around today, this is a huge achievement.

[Adam]

Amazing achievement, he deserves it as well. Let's hope he can keep it going and finally bag the Aus Open in the new year.

Murray just won the ATP World Tour Finals for the first time, confirming his status as the year-end World Number One. He looks like a big contender for a third Sports Personality of the Year victory next month.

Corrected.

Knight him I say. 

Honestly didn't expect him to win that, even if the last two matches he'd played hadn't been as long and gruelling as they were. The fact they were and he still won in straights with how good Djokovic looked yesterday... what an athlete the man is.

Andy the year end number one in singles, Jamie the year end number one in doubles. 

The Murrays.

Nice to finally have some change at the top after Djokovic has spent the last five years making the whole tour incredibly boring and tedious.

Well deserved from Murray, he's always put in the work but he's just been unlucky to be in a generation with three all-time greats. It's good to see him finally at the very top. Wouldn't surprise me if he went on to complete the career slam next season now.

[Adam]

He's brilliant, really happy for him. I just hope he can finally get the Australian Open next year, I don't even care if he never wins the French, or another Wimbledon.

Petra Kvitova's surgery on her hand injury sustained in a knife attack was successful and she could return to action in six months.

The 26-year-old, a two-time Wimbledon champion, suffered serious injuries to her left hand after an intruder entered her home in the Czech Republic on Tuesday.

A statement read: "Surgeon Radek Kebrle said that the operation on Petra's left hand went very well, with no complications. The best-case scenario is that Petra will be able to return to the tennis court after six months."

16 year old Destanee Aiava, with her defeat of Bethanie Mattek-Sands at the Brisbane International, has become the first female born in this century to win a WTA main draw match.

Jo Konta has just won the Sydney Open, her second WTA Title, by dispatching Aga Radwanska in straight sets.

Aus Open starts next week!

And finished pretty early for Djokovic

Evans has now knocked out Tomic.

[Lineker]

Murray's out!

[Lineker]

Tsonga has now also knocked out Dan Evans.

[The Lusophone]

This is the widest open slam in years. Two best players in the world are out. Fed is a set down right now, Nadal nowhere near his previous best. Anyone could win this.

[Adam]

I'm so disappointed. Australia is the one tournament I am desperate to see Murray win after all those final appearances, so he goes and loses to Mischa Zverev!? FFS.

[Baddar]

That's disappointing.

[Gazz]

I dunno, it was quite nice to see a player playing serve and volley and being successful at it, it's a dying art.
