Murray/Soares Qualify For Barclays ATP World Tour Finals

British-Brazilian duo London-bound

Jamie Murray and Bruno Soares have qualified for the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals, to be held at The O2 in London from 13-20 November. Murray/Soares won their third-round match at the US Open against Brian Baker and Marcus Daniell 6-3, 7-6(7). Jean-Julien Rojer and Horia Tecau’s third-round loss earlier in the day ensured that the British-Brazilian team would qualify for the prestigious year-end championship.

Murray/Soares are currently No. 3 in the Emirates ATP Doubles Race To London. The 2016 Australian Open champions (d. Nestor/Stepanek) own two team titles (2016 Sydney) and have reached the finals of ATP World Tour Masters 1000 events in Toronto and Monte Carlo this year.

Murray will be making his second consecutive London appearance. Last year, he and partner John Peers were eliminated in the group stage. Soares qualified for London in 2013 and 2014 alongside Alexander Peya. They reached the semi-finals (l. to Bryan/Bryan) in 2013.
