Ball Kids Enjoy Special Moment With New No. 1
Ball Kids Enjoy Special Moment With New No. 1
On Saturday, Andy Murray joined an exclusive club in becoming the 26th player to ascend to No. 1 in the Emirates ATP Rankings. While the 29-year-old Scot was elated, fans at the BNP Paribas Masters were left without a second semi-final after Milos Raonic was forced to withdraw due to a right leg injury.
Enter the new No. 1 to save the day. After speaking to the packed crowd at the AccorHotels Arena, Murray gave three ball kids a moment they will never forget, stepping on the court for a 10-point tie-break with the trio.
Murray will face John Isner for his first Paris title on Sunday. Appearing in his 64th tour-level final, he is vying for a 43rd crown and 14th at the ATP World Tour Masters 1000 level.
