Day 2 Results at World Tour Finals

Murray lost today against a solid Ferrer.  Even though he was up a break in both sets, he managed to blow his lead and lose in straight sets.  It was a bit of a shocking loss for him as he has pretty much owned Ferrer lately.

In a bizarre match Djokovic beat Berdych.  Berdych jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the first set, gifted a break back to Djokovic, then faced another break point to make it even, but he managed to hold and to win the 1st set.  A determined Djokovic took the Berdych's first service game off of him in the second set and held off on some other games to win that set.  In the third, Djokovic got down a break, but then immediately broke back.  He held two other tough services games and even faced a couple of match points in the 12th game.  Berdych's forehand broke down when he really needed it and he wasn't able to convert on the biggest points of the match.  Not surprisingly Novak won the tiebreak 7-3, not surprising considering that Berdych failed to convert a couple of match points.
