Murray wins in Shanghai to overtake Federer in rankings

穆雷上海夺冠 排名超越费德勒

ANDY Murray beat Spain's David Ferrer 7-5, 6-4 to claim the Shanghai Rolex Masters title yesterday and move ahead of Swiss Roger Federer in the rankings for the first time in his career.

10月16日上海：安迪·穆雷以7-5/6-4击败对手西班牙人大卫·费雷尔，捧走上海劳力士网球大师赛奖杯。同时穆雷实现职业生涯中排名超过瑞士天王罗杰·费德勒。

The victory completed a stunning Asian hat-trick for Murray and allowed the seemingly unstoppable Scot to leapfrog 16-time grand-slam champion Federer into third spot in the ATP list.

此次胜利使穆雷在亚洲赛季实现了惊人的帽子戏法。苏格兰人显出锐不可当之势，排名超过16次大满贯费德勒，成为ATP排名第三。

Murray's 25th victory from 26 matches - his only loss coming to world No. 2 Rafael Nadal of Spain - sends Federer out of the top three for the first time in eight years.

穆雷在过去的26场比赛中取得了25次胜利：一次失利是败给世界排名第二的西班牙人拉斐尔·纳达尔。穆雷的上佳表现使得费天王8年来被挤出了ATP排名榜三甲。

Murray has now won three titles in as many weeks on the Asian swing of the ATP World Tour - his best winning streak - after his victories in Bangkok, Thailand; and Tokyo, Japan.

穆雷以连胜之势（15连胜）抱走了ATP世界巡回赛亚洲赛季的三座奖杯—另外两场分别是在泰国曼谷和日本东京。

After accepting the trophy on court, Murray said a few words to the crowd in Chinese. "Da shi, shi bu ke dang," which roughly translates to "Masters are unstoppable."

在球场上接受奖杯后，穆雷也朝人群秀了句中文：“大师势不可挡”为自己庆祝。

Murray's reached a career-high ranking of No. 2 in 2009 but has never finished the year higher than No. 4. Federer reached the final in Shanghai last year but skipped this year's tournament, costing him valuable points.

穆雷曾在2009年排名达到职业生涯新高第二位，但穆雷的赛季年终排名是第四位。2010年上海网球大师赛费德勒打入决赛（小编注：2010年穆雷击败费德勒拿到），但错过了今年的锦标赛，丢掉了宝贵的分数。

"I'm still not guaranteed to finish (the year) at No. 3; I'm still going to have to win some more matches," Murray said. "This is the best tournament run of my life. I was very nervous as I wanted to retain the title."

穆雷在赛后表示：“我不能保证在今年结束前保持ATP排名第三的成绩，我还得多赢点比赛。这是我职业生涯里的战绩，我其实非常紧张因为我想要卫冕。”

The defending champion broke the third-seeded Ferrer in the first game but a catalogue of errors then undermined his hard work at the Qi Zhong Tennis Center in suburban Minhang District.

ATP网球大师赛男单决赛在上海闵行区旗忠网球中心举行，在首盘比赛中，面对赛会三号种子选手费雷尔，卫冕率先破掉对手的发球局，但随后由于失误过多又遭到对方反破发。

The Scot leaped on the error and produced a pair of aces to secure the set.

苏格兰人减少失误，以ACE球（小编注：网球术语，直接发球得分）结束两盘锁定胜局。

World No. 5 Ferrer was seeking his first Masters title but his hopes were dashed by an increasingly dominant Murray who ran him ragged for much of the second set.

世界排名第五的费雷尔此次向自己的大师赛发起冲击，但始终未能突破穆雷在球场上日益强势的掌控力。费雷尔在第二盘中被穆雷打得筋疲力尽。

"It is difficult to beat Andy at the moment; he is playing very confidently," said Ferrer.

“现在想要打败安迪真的很难，他打得非常自信。”费雷尔在赛后表示。
