Theres always a first.

Scot Murray lost focus as he served for the match in the second set and was then battered by the hard hitting Janowicz, who ended the contest with a forehand winner and collapsed in joy.
“He probably gained some confidence from that (match point saved) and started playing better,” Murray told a news conference.
“He played a good tiebreak, played aggressive, he hits a very flat ball, so when he’s hitting it well it comes through the court a lot.”
World number three Murray’s defeat against the world 69 means that for the first time since the 2010 Paris Masters was won by Swede Robin Soderling, a Masters title will be claimed by a player outside of the Big Four.

Argentine seventh seed Juan Martin del Potro will also have a few extra days to prepare for next week’s ATP World Tour Finals at the O2 in London as he was beaten 6-4 6-3 by local favorite Michael Llodra.

But that run was unlikely to stay intact against a grand slam champion and he fell 15-40 behind in the 11th game.
He saw off the first break point by following a big first serve at the net, only to double fault on the second.
