:00:12. > :00:17.Welcome to the world tour finals at the O2 Arena. It is the last tennis

:00:18. > :00:23.match of the year and it is between the great champions, Novak Djokavic

:00:24. > :00:26.against Roger Federer. In this match it has all been rolled back

:00:27. > :00:34.Djokavic. He has had two breaks of serve. It is 1-1 in the second will

:00:35. > :01:50.stop the commentators are Tim Henman and Andrew Castle.

:01:51. > :01:55.That is Robbie Federer. His son has been around long enough to know that

:01:56. > :02:00.perhaps the inspiration will come. You can not force it if it is not

:02:01. > :02:15.there. He is not inspired so far and something has to change for him.

:02:16. > :02:26.That is a start. When you watch these rallies and you watch where

:02:27. > :02:31.each shot from Djokavic is landing, so deep, so close to the loins, it

:02:32. > :02:33.takes a moment of inspiration like that to come up with a miraculous

:02:34. > :02:53.winner. The first played back in 2006 in

:02:54. > :02:59.Monte Carlo on the clay and Roger beaten in the first round. He lost

:03:00. > :03:03.concentration in the second set. He was asked what he made of Djokavic,

:03:04. > :04:14.he said he was OK but did not know he would be this good.

:04:15. > :04:20.Roger Federer has hit a backhand down the line for a half volley for

:04:21. > :04:27.a clean winner. He had the phenomenal forehand and 95 mph. He

:04:28. > :04:32.lost the game. It is so tough. They have a rivalry going back to 2006.

:04:33. > :04:47.22-21 four Roger Federer. Some of the celebrities. Terry

:04:48. > :05:01.Henry. Robert Peel is. Is Olivier Giroud? They lost 2-1 to The Baggies

:05:02. > :05:06.yesterday. And the two of the 17,500 people here. The staging at times

:05:07. > :05:14.has been better than the tennis this week. The entire walk on thing with

:05:15. > :05:19.the infected spawn. -- with the poem. It was the pawn that kept

:05:20. > :05:26.Nelson Mandela going on Robin Island. That is lyrical.

:05:27. > :05:34.The matches you played in Hannover, the staging was not like this, was

:05:35. > :05:48.it? It is not a Jess Cameron excavation Mark -- it is not a case

:05:49. > :05:52.camera! . Hanover was not bad. It is always a special event. It

:05:53. > :06:01.emphasises why we are pleased it is staying here until 2018. 270,000

:06:02. > :06:06.spectators for the eighth Maccabees of the Championships. Great arena.

:06:07. > :06:11.It is going to have to be somewhere special to take it away from here.

:06:12. > :06:40.-- for the eight days. Fist pump after the first point of

:06:41. > :06:45.the game. That is where Federer is now. It is early to say this is a

:06:46. > :06:51.must win game but it feels like it, Federer is hanging on. It is about

:06:52. > :07:02.building momentum. That reaction for the crowd as well.

:07:03. > :07:08.He knows the crowd wants to see more tennis. If he could give them

:07:09. > :07:23.something to get the teeth into he knows he will have the support.

:07:24. > :07:31.Talking about picking it early. He sees the ball quicker on the return

:07:32. > :07:46.than anyone I have ever seen. Andre Agassi and Jimmy Connors included.

:07:47. > :07:53.And if you really want to try to build momentum in this set, it is

:07:54. > :07:55.better to serve first and keep your nose in front. Federer is playing

:07:56. > :08:24.catch up here. Looking at the serving statistics

:08:25. > :08:31.for Djokavic, why is he winning 58% of his first serve and 82% on his

:08:32. > :08:32.second serve? Federer is not returning the second serve as

:08:33. > :08:45.effectively as the first. Is that also called stating the

:08:46. > :09:39.obvious? Good question. Needed to move further forwards

:09:40. > :09:40.rather than sideways, Federer. Not a volley he would be expecting to

:09:41. > :09:52.miss. Why is Djokavic winning a higher

:09:53. > :09:56.percentage on second serve than first? It has to be the Federer

:09:57. > :10:33.return, what is he doing wrong, what does he have to change?

:10:34. > :10:40.I just wonder from a technical point of view web Djokavic's first serve

:10:41. > :10:45.was coming through flatter and more in the hitting zone, perhaps lower.

:10:46. > :10:47.Second serve is getting up higher on Federer's backhand. Those are some

:10:48. > :11:13.bizarre numbers. It is the right tactic to look to

:11:14. > :11:18.move forward but Federer is aware that he can not just hit that

:11:19. > :11:21.forehand for McAfee from the line, it has to be closer and more

:11:22. > :12:00.aggressive and that can lead to a unforced errors.

:12:01. > :12:07.It is almost as if the task is much clearer for Federer win Djokavic

:12:08. > :12:11.gets a first serve. It is there and he can hit it. Second serve tends to

:12:12. > :12:16.be more conscious what you can and cannot do. Federer is clearly trying

:12:17. > :12:22.to get to the net and trying to force things. It is the measure of

:12:23. > :12:24.the rock like nature of Djokavic's game, it is so hard to break down.

:12:25. > :12:37.That is why he is number one. On the women's two, the coach

:12:38. > :12:42.come out and have a word with the players. It has not been introduced

:12:43. > :12:44.in the men's game but there is a feeling it should be. It would be

:12:45. > :12:49.interesting to hear what was said. feeling it should be. It would be

:12:50. > :12:54.It would be interesting. On the other side of the coin, it is one of

:12:55. > :12:58.the beauties of the game, it is an individual sport. You have to work

:12:59. > :13:09.it out for yourself. You have to think about your game plan, your

:13:10. > :13:11.style, the strengths and weaknesses of your opponent. Federer has the

:13:12. > :13:13.right game plan but have to play better, too many unforced errors.

:13:14. > :13:18.The semifinal out -- against standard drinker would not have

:13:19. > :13:24.taken him too much. Jihadi rest day. -- he had a rest day.

:13:25. > :13:32.Watching him try to figure it out. What the crowd want is another 90

:13:33. > :14:18.minutes or two hours of tennis. UMPIRE: Mr Djokavic is challenging

:14:19. > :14:27.the call. Great second serve from Federer. UMPIRE: It stands. You do

:14:28. > :17:29.not want to miss that by an inch. They are not many people who would

:17:30. > :17:36.get a standing ovation to bring it back to 15 - 15. That was a great

:17:37. > :17:51.effort. How do you think this sounds to Djokavic's heroes? -- is?

:17:52. > :18:07.He has to look to do something with this second serve.

:18:08. > :18:15.Two backhand errors in this game, really soft. The first point of the

:18:16. > :19:27.game and then that one. Inspiration in between.

:19:28. > :19:36.What a second serve that was. The kit on that and the top spin

:19:37. > :19:41.bringing it down inside the line. That is one reason why Federer has

:19:42. > :19:48.struggled. -- kick. It has got quite a lot of leg strength in that. I

:19:49. > :19:55.must say congratulations to the doubles winners, John Julian Roger

:19:56. > :20:02.and Horia Tecau. The beat Rohan Bopanna and Florin Mergea. It is a

:20:03. > :20:06.shame that players do not play doubles as often. You would like to

:20:07. > :20:10.see the top guys playing doubles as well but the reality is with the

:20:11. > :20:15.physical demands of players playing five sets in the Grand Slams, there

:20:16. > :20:18.is no way that you can have the recovery necessary to keep competing

:20:19. > :20:24.like this if you have to go out on the doubles court as well. They did

:20:25. > :20:30.try to help the singles players into the doubles more. One of the

:20:31. > :20:34.initiatives was to make it though ad scoring. The receivers receiving and

:20:35. > :20:41.sudden death shortening the games. It did not work. It has two a

:20:42. > :20:45.certain extent. They have got some singles players playing at different

:20:46. > :20:49.times of the year. Certainly Eliana nearer to get some extra matches.

:20:50. > :20:59.Federer might play doubles or the Talmud doubles. Nadal played in

:21:00. > :21:02.doubles with Pace. Coming on to create you might play a couple of

:21:03. > :21:06.extra matches. Singles players can use the single fighting to get into

:21:07. > :21:13.the doubles tournament. They do not have to have a doubles ranking.

:21:14. > :21:22.Queen's Club as the players make the transition from clay to grass, you

:21:23. > :21:29.always get doubles there. Well done to John Julian Roger and Horia

:21:30. > :21:34.Tecau. Federer rivalry feels he needs a doubles partner right now

:21:35. > :21:43.taking on Djokavic excavation Mark --!

:21:44. > :21:50.First point in the game is always an important point. You can see Federer

:21:51. > :22:01.lose that first point on his serve a lot.

:22:02. > :22:13.That is on bail. 124 mph first serve and the return was stunning. It was

:22:14. > :22:18.the return that made it all possible. Just to get the return

:22:19. > :22:54.back in court... It was a great effort.

:22:55. > :23:05.That is unreal, isn't it? He dismissed Nadal yesterday, 3-3. It

:23:06. > :23:09.is shaping up like that as well with the score. He has got three break

:23:10. > :24:13.points. Three Massa points in a role for

:24:14. > :24:16.Federer. Back to deuce. -- massive. Three vital first serves. Still

:24:17. > :24:33.needs a couple more. UMPIRE: Mr Djokavic is challenging

:24:34. > :24:35.the call. It was called in. We are Federer is standing he thinks it is

:24:36. > :25:20.out. This is going to test Djokavic's

:25:21. > :25:27.composer. He is not going to play many games better than that and not

:25:28. > :25:50.win them. And no engagement from the crowd.

:25:51. > :26:27.UMPIRE: Mr Federer is challenging the call. The ball was called in.

:26:28. > :28:00.How cool was that? Second serve after having to wait. Magnificent.

:28:01. > :28:09.Coming into this week, Djokavic have not lost an indoor match since 2012

:28:10. > :28:15.which seems utterly ridiculous. An amazing streak. 23 straight

:28:16. > :28:18.victories this year as well. We can see why, his composure and his

:28:19. > :28:23.ability to put the past behind him and move on. It is called

:28:24. > :28:28.concentration and it is not talked about enough in tennis. That was

:28:29. > :28:33.very good, wasn't it? Impressive in so many areas and I have not seen

:28:34. > :28:37.that somebody had the ball down the line so consistently with so few

:28:38. > :28:40.errors. It is meant to be the low percentage shot over the high part

:28:41. > :28:47.of the net into a smaller part of the court. He does a time and time

:28:48. > :28:50.again. How impressed with you after having waited for the Hawk-Eye

:28:51. > :28:55.system to tell him that his first serve was out. Mass of noise from

:28:56. > :29:06.the crowd. The disappointment of the previous game of having 0-40 and not

:29:07. > :29:09.taking it. Straight down the line. Television time outs here around the

:29:10. > :29:13.world. Channels that take commercial breaks are slotting them in right

:29:14. > :29:24.now. When the lights come back up, they know that the tennis is about

:29:25. > :29:38.to start. Federer serving to stay in the final.

:29:39. > :29:49.It is that first point again. Djokavic establishing himself in

:29:50. > :29:53.another Federer serve the scheme. With the scoreline as it is, he will

:29:54. > :30:50.be looking for the break to finish this off.

:30:51. > :31:04.The longer it went on, the more you felt Djokovic would win it. 32

:31:05. > :31:07.shots, the last one into the net by Federer. The longest rally of the

:31:08. > :32:49.week. UMPIRE: Thank you, please, thank

:32:50. > :33:17.you. I think it is a challenge, hold on.

:33:18. > :33:22.This would be a shame if it finishes on a double fault. He went into the

:33:23. > :33:31.body. It is out, the tournament is over. 63, 6-4. He was impeccable

:33:32. > :33:51.best we can. -- 6-3. It is a happy birthday for Boris

:33:52. > :33:58.Becker and the team. They have done a fabulous job with their man. He

:33:59. > :34:04.hardly made a mistake over the weekend. First plane Rafael Nadal.

:34:05. > :34:17.And Roger Federer. A hog for the birthday boy. His wife as well.

:34:18. > :34:22.Great job. Efficient. Efficiency is the most magnificent thing about it.

:34:23. > :34:28.Tim Henman, your thoughts? Just too good in all areas really. Federer

:34:29. > :34:32.didn't play his best. When Federer is to have a chance against

:34:33. > :34:39.Djokovic, he needs to serve well. Wasn't able to get points on the

:34:40. > :34:44.first served and they got into a baseline exchange. There is no one

:34:45. > :34:51.in the world who can compete with Novak Djokovic in this form and this

:34:52. > :34:55.fitness. More glory for the world number one. Three of the four Grand

:34:56. > :35:01.Slams came his way. He just lost in the final of the French this year.

:35:02. > :35:06.He will have a bit of time off before preparing to defend his

:35:07. > :35:11.Australian Open crown. Who is to say what will happen next year. A double

:35:12. > :35:15.fault to finish from Roger Federer as he tried to force the issue on

:35:16. > :35:22.the final point. Unforced errors in the match were absolutely key.

:35:23. > :35:33.Federer was trying to make things happen? Djokovic only lost three

:35:34. > :35:39.points on his second serve. Federer down at 43%. When they are getting

:35:40. > :35:52.into those baseline exchanges, Djokovic is coming out on top. Four

:35:53. > :35:58.in a row. Ivan Lendl couldn't do it but a lot of people have tried.

:35:59. > :36:06.Novak Djokovic said it would be OK if this Championships did leave

:36:07. > :36:12.London. It is a venue which has proved handy for him over the years.

:36:13. > :36:15.This, I repeat of the Wimbledon final he also won against the same

:36:16. > :36:17.opponent earlier this year. Presentation party just getting

:36:18. > :36:24.ready out on the court. This

:36:25. > :36:29.fine tennis, but some This

:36:30. > :36:36.over the week. A couple of the This

:36:37. > :36:42.looked tired, didn't they? I think it is always going to be more of a

:36:43. > :36:49.challenge. Sometimes we saw Stan Wawrinka fragile against Rafael

:36:50. > :36:53.Nadal. We saw Andy Murray distracted with the Davis Cup final round the

:36:54. > :37:00.corner. Certainly, it was a fitting finale to have the best player in

:37:01. > :37:05.the world coming out on top. Just to emphasise the season Djokovic has

:37:06. > :37:10.had, to make all four grand slam finals in a season, Rod Labour did

:37:11. > :37:20.it in 1969. Roger Federer did it in 2009. 2005 and 2006 and then 2009.

:37:21. > :37:27.So he did it three times, Roger. Djokovic has an air about him that

:37:28. > :37:36.suggests he fancies more of this, certainly. Magnificent today,

:37:37. > :37:41.Djokovic, the champion once again. Ladies and gentlemen we are ready

:37:42. > :37:46.for the 2015 R Keyes ATP world tour final trophy presentation. Would you

:41:01. > :41:05.fantastic opposition today. Can you give us your thoughts? Although it

:44:10. > :44:15.of my closest one, I wouldn't be managing to get to where I am. I am

:44:16. > :44:19.just trying to obviously enjoy every moment and cherish every moment that

:44:43. > :44:49.you spend it? I am only thinking now about this. A couple of weeks of

:44:50. > :44:53.holiday, I am going to be together with my family, my wife and son and

:44:54. > :44:57.try to stay away from tennis for a little bit. Then recharge my

:44:58. > :45:04.batteries. Everybody needs that every once in awhile. Think about

:45:05. > :45:10.next season. Did you get Boris the birthday present, I guess this is

:45:11. > :45:20.it? I guess it is, happy birthday, Boris. I just want to mention and

:45:51. > :45:55.Djokovic. Didn't put a foot wrong today against Roger Federer. Just

:45:56. > :46:01.showing why he is the man to beat again next year. The big question,

:46:02. > :46:06.can anyone stop him? Tim, that was an awesome performance? It was, as

:46:07. > :46:11.the tournament panned out, when we saw Federer beat Djokovic in the

:46:12. > :46:18.group stages, I don't think there were too many in the Djokovic camp

:46:19. > :46:22.that work panicking. When the final came about, his intensity was a

:46:23. > :46:26.different level and he was so consistent from the back of the

:46:27. > :46:30.court. He served better and he didn't give Federer many

:46:31. > :46:36.opportunities to get his teeth into the match. You wonder how Federer

:46:37. > :46:42.can win anything against him? You have to play perfectly. Like how he

:46:43. > :46:46.served in the semifinal at Wimbledon against Andy Murray, he said that

:46:47. > :46:51.was the best he has ever served. When you play him, you have to play

:46:52. > :46:59.the best tennis you have got in every regard. Roger feels like he

:47:00. > :47:06.can bring some more in the New Year at the age of 34. You salute that

:47:07. > :47:11.enthusiasm for the game and we have seen the resurgence of Rafa over the

:47:12. > :47:16.last few months. Andy will respond as well. But these are new standards

:47:17. > :47:20.we are seeing. He has gone away and worked on a number of things. You

:47:21. > :47:26.are talking about his serve. He said he hasn't been getting more pace on

:47:27. > :47:33.the serve, it is the positioning that is so important? He is not a

:47:34. > :47:37.guy that will go out and serve 15, 20 aces in a match. But he serves at

:47:38. > :47:46.a high percentage, always up at a high 60s and low 70s first serves

:47:47. > :47:53.in. Quite often the return is weak and then he can dominate. He has

:47:54. > :47:57.strengthened the forehand and the backhand. Add to that, his footwork

:47:58. > :48:03.and movement, he is difficult to play against. Federer leaving the

:48:04. > :48:10.court, he will be back. This is the moment all of these ball kids will

:48:11. > :48:15.like. Harry, couldn't believe he was going to be a ball kid, then his

:48:16. > :48:19.name was picked out of the hat. It is a nice idea to salute these kids

:48:20. > :48:26.who work so hard. We much appreciate them. We have lost the champion in

:48:27. > :48:30.there somewhere. Please talk about life skills and it is important and

:48:31. > :48:35.the discipline that comes from the training, which is rigorous, it

:48:36. > :48:37.stays with you for life. No doubt, the players appreciate them because

:48:38. > :48:46.I would have thought most of this draw, most of the players, Federer

:48:47. > :48:52.was a ball kid, Djokovic was a ball kid, I was back in the day. And you

:48:53. > :48:56.do appreciate the work they do. He is a great ambassador for the game?

:48:57. > :49:01.He knows how to represent himself very well. At the champion's dinner

:49:02. > :49:07.in Paris, saluted as the world champion again, trying to win the

:49:08. > :49:12.French Open, does he turn up? Yet he does, even if it is only for a few

:49:13. > :49:18.minutes to say every gracious words, and shake a few hands, he does it.

:49:19. > :49:22.He represents himself very well by doing that but understands his

:49:23. > :49:28.obligations. We have had fantastic ambassadors in this sport for many

:49:29. > :49:33.years, but Federer and Rafael Nadal set the tone in how they embrace the

:49:34. > :49:38.sponsors and the fans. It forced Djokovic to look at that. There were

:49:39. > :49:43.times he was a bit petulant early on in his career and pulled out of a

:49:44. > :49:47.few matches. But now he has seen the bar being set so high on and off the

:49:48. > :49:53.court, now he is the one leading from the front. The fans at the

:49:54. > :49:56.Grand Slams appreciate great champions and great champions

:49:57. > :50:03.delivering year after year. I think his popularity will grow and grow as

:50:04. > :50:07.he continues to win Grand Slams? When you interviewed Roger, when we

:50:08. > :50:13.see the emotion running out, Novak, lost at the French to Stan Wawrinka,

:50:14. > :50:19.you saw the human behind the tennis and the work ethic. When Andy broke

:50:20. > :50:24.down when you are talking to him, it wasn't your question, although we

:50:25. > :50:30.could all cry, it is the moment where you share. He is in an era

:50:31. > :50:37.where you have Federer and Rafa and they are loved. He is loved as well.

:50:38. > :50:43.But he is the one to beat. When it gets close, it is not against him,

:50:44. > :50:46.it is cheering for the other guy because you want to see a close

:50:47. > :50:56.match. The winning, the losing and the highs and the lows that go with

:50:57. > :50:59.it. At Wimbledon, you have to walk on after Dan amends five sets

:51:00. > :51:06.whether players are still spaced out, and the motion is raw for them?

:51:07. > :51:13.Djokovic talked about this journey. When he was a young kid growing up,

:51:14. > :51:16.probably being a ball boy and training and practising for these

:51:17. > :51:22.types of moments. It is what he has worked so hard for. Let's not forget

:51:23. > :51:25.those five or six years when he was three or four in the world, he was

:51:26. > :51:31.the one getting through to the semifinals and losing to Federer and

:51:32. > :51:37.Rafael Nadal. I am sure there were times he was questioning whether he

:51:38. > :51:41.would get his moment. Now he is reaping the rewards and he's going

:51:42. > :51:45.to enjoy it and have his holiday. But you know he will keep working

:51:46. > :51:51.hard because he wants to achieve more and more. He is only 28, he has

:51:52. > :51:58.won ten Grand Slams. You see him being fit and healthy for another

:51:59. > :52:01.three, four, five years. Seven Grand Slams behind Roger and he is

:52:02. > :52:08.thinking he has still time to catch him. That is a year and three

:52:09. > :52:14.quarters in Djokovic world. Let's Admir some of the play he produced

:52:15. > :52:19.out here against Roger. Roger was giving his all, but sometimes

:52:20. > :52:22.Djokovic is unplayable. It was Federer on top, but Djokovic was

:52:23. > :52:28.able to hang in, keep the ball back and then turn defence into attack.

:52:29. > :52:35.We love that one. The parting shot, what have you got to do to win

:52:36. > :52:41.points? 124 miles an hour into the corner. That's all you can do, go

:52:42. > :52:46.away and practice and try and figure it all out. That is where the

:52:47. > :52:51.coaches come in. On this point, Roger running all over the court. He

:52:52. > :52:55.is so quick to every shot and so balanced when he plays it. Roger is

:52:56. > :52:59.trying to be so aggressive but the ball keeps coming back with

:53:00. > :53:03.interest. At the 25 shots in a rally, it is Djokovic who hits the

:53:04. > :53:08.winner. When you are trying to be aggressive and it keeps going back,

:53:09. > :53:12.you go for more, you go closer to the line and lower over the net and

:53:13. > :53:17.that is when the unforced errors creep in. When we look at the tally

:53:18. > :53:23.at the end of the match, Federer had made 30, 34 unforced errors. But the

:53:24. > :53:26.reason it is so many is because Djokovic is forcing you to go for

:53:27. > :53:36.more and more. You wonder who will be strong enough to run those balls

:53:37. > :53:40.down? Andy Murray can stay with him physically. Roger will struggle over

:53:41. > :53:46.five sets, given his age with the greatest of respect. And Rafa next

:53:47. > :53:51.year, on a clay court he can stay with him as well. When you talk

:53:52. > :53:55.about Grand Slams and a matchup against Djokovic, Federer needs help

:53:56. > :54:01.from the conditions. Australia is pretty slow now, a lot of the

:54:02. > :54:03.matches are at night when it is cooler and the ball doesn't go

:54:04. > :54:08.through the air so quickly. It doesn't help him. I still think of

:54:09. > :54:12.Wimbledon because of the nature of the service and where Roger can get

:54:13. > :54:18.the most help on his serve. From the back of the court, grass is the

:54:19. > :54:23.toughest surface to move on because you haven't got sure footing. Three

:54:24. > :54:28.of the four Grand Slams is hard for Roger over the best of five format.

:54:29. > :54:34.I think at Wimbledon with his grass court pedigree, that is where he has

:54:35. > :54:41.a chance. This is vintage Federer. This was the point of the match. The

:54:42. > :54:46.sort of tennis Roger to play. On the court of this speed, which is very,

:54:47. > :54:52.very slow, you have to hit three, four, five winners. When you think

:54:53. > :54:55.about when he first won the World Tour Finals, in 2003 and the guys he

:54:56. > :55:02.was beating, there were players around like this, but he was the

:55:03. > :55:06.boss by far. It is amazing he has maintained his enthusiasm for the

:55:07. > :55:10.game and still loves it. He talked about it, you cannot wait for next

:55:11. > :55:15.year to have a go at Djokovic again. He will not rest until he has picked

:55:16. > :55:19.him off in a few big matches. He just loves playing. It comes across

:55:20. > :55:23.that he is still in love with the game as much as ever. We're almost

:55:24. > :55:42.at the end of our programme but plenty of sport to come here.

:55:43. > :55:48.We were talking about that, discussions going on between the

:55:49. > :55:54.ITF, the LTA and the Belgian authorities about safety. It is

:55:55. > :55:59.paramount, the British players have postponed their trip. They have got

:56:00. > :56:06.to make a decision soon? They are led by the intelligence and security

:56:07. > :56:10.services. They say they cannot guarantee the safety of people in

:56:11. > :56:15.crowded places and a major event. It is a major event 30 malls away from

:56:16. > :56:21.the centre of the security scare that is going on in Belgium at the

:56:22. > :56:26.moment. If something does change and they can assure everybody, then

:56:27. > :56:30.we'll will be led by government advice. As it stands at the moment,

:56:31. > :56:35.I don't expect it to be played. If it is not played next week, when

:56:36. > :56:40.will it be fitted into the calendar because there isn't a place for it?

:56:41. > :56:44.It really is a difficult scenario, if that is the case and it is

:56:45. > :56:48.postponed. You look at whether players are they finish the season.

:56:49. > :56:52.Next year it is pretty much the Australian Open at the end of

:56:53. > :56:57.January. The draw for the first round of the Davis Cup is taking

:56:58. > :57:01.place in March and there are other events. I am keeping my fingers

:57:02. > :57:05.crossed they can get this played and Great Britain can win. We are hoping

:57:06. > :57:11.and if the final does get under way, we will be there from Friday. We

:57:12. > :57:15.don't know who will be playing, but we hope it goes ahead. That is it, I

:57:16. > :57:20.hope you have enjoyed the tournament. What a year it has been

:57:21. > :57:25.that the amazing Novak Djokovic. It all started a week ago with a sombre

:57:26. > :57:31.start as we remembered those who lost their lives in the terror

:57:32. > :57:36.attacks nine days ago. All my heart goes obviously to the families of

:57:37. > :57:48.the lost ones. It is really devastating. That is a wicked tennis

:57:49. > :57:57.point. Andy Murray is off to a winning start. Just something to

:57:58. > :58:02.watch, look at this. A little piece of brilliance. Roger Federer,

:58:03. > :58:07.undefeated in his group. Clash of champions this afternoon. It is all

:58:08. > :58:13.with Rafa this afternoon. That is it, great to see Rafael Nadal back

:58:14. > :58:26.in London. Calmly done and technically perfect. Murray is out

:58:27. > :58:34.and Stan Wawrinka is through to the semifinals. That is a pure

:58:35. > :58:43.performance. He has absolutely dominated Rafael Nadal. Federer,

:58:44. > :58:51.once again through to the World Tour Finals. This is the match this

:58:52. > :58:56.tournament deserved at the end. Djokovic, takes the first set 6-3.

:58:57. > :59:01.He is the world number one, he is proving it. That is unreal. The

:59:02. > :59:17.tournament is over. But, no, no, no, no, no, a minute ago

:59:18. > :59:22.I was a noble Native American. Now I'm one of the Village People.

:59:23. > :59:26.Why have you come as one of them?
