The draw for the ATP World Tour Finals has been held, while Britain’s Andy Murray is set to battle with Serbian ace Novak Djokovic, for the coveted year end No. 1 position in the ATP Rankings.

Murray, who became the top-ranked tennis player for the first time at the weekend, will open his account at London’s O2 Arena with a match against Marin Cilic. The Brit will then take on Stan Wawrinka and Kei Nishikori in the round robin stage.

Meanwhile, in the other group, the 5-time champion Djokovic will face Milos Raonic, Gael Monfils and Dominic Thiem.

Murray needs to at least match Djokovic’s performance in London, in order to retain his new status as the world number 1.
