Britain’s Andy Murray battled back from a set and a break down to beat Milos Raonic and book his place in the final of the ATP World Tour finals in London.
Murray looked out of sorts in the opening set and first three games of the second, but he then rallied and eventually prevailed 5-7 7-6 7-6 in a tournament-record three hours and 38 minutes.
The result extended his winning run to a career-best 23 matches, sealed his first appearance in the final at the O2 Arena and ensured he remains on course to end the season as world no 1.
Andy Murray had admitted before the match that Milos Raonic will be a tough opponent to beat.
Murray crushed Stan Wawrinka 6-4 6-2 on Friday to book his place in the last four and ahead of Saturday’s game.
Murray entered the clash with an 8-3 head 2 head record against Raonic, who has lost the past seven meetings against the Briton, including five this season.
