Judy Murray always believed her son Andy could become the world No 1 and is thrilled that both him and Jamie are top of their separate disciplines. New world No 1 Andy marked reaching the summit of world tennis by beating big-serving American John Isner in three hard-fought sets in the Paris Masters final to secure his eighth ATP Tour title of the season.The 29-year-old Scot, already assured of top spot for the first time in his career before Sundays 6-3 6-7 (4-7) 6-4 win against 6ft 10in Isner, will now prepare for next weeks World Tour Finals at the O2 Arena in London. Watch NOW TV Watch Sky Sports for just ￡6.99. No contract. The Briton sealed the 43rd tour-level title of his career and his 14th ATP World Tour Masters 1000 title and mother Judy was full of praise for her son, admitting that when he realised he was in sight of No 1, there was no stopping him in his pursuit.The circuit is very stacked and very demanding and usually everybody is getting a little bit tired, theres a lot of injuries, but hes just been so strong. Once he got closer and closer he just went on a bit of a mission and when hes on a mission hes dangerous, she told Sky Sports. WATCH: Murray is world No 1 Andy Murray is the new world No 1 and Sky Sports pays tribute to Britains finest tennis player Hes been in the mix with Roger [Federer] and Rafa [Nadal] and Novak [Djokovic] for a long time now and its a matter of consistency and this has been his most consistent year so its nice that hes managed to find his way to the top of the rankings. Jamie Murray, who teamed up to form a successful partnership with Bruno Soares to become world No 1 earlier this year, now has a chance of ending the season top of the ladder in mens doubles at the ATP World Tour Finals.But the dynamic duo face a fight against top-ranked French pairing Pierre-Hugues Herbert and Nicolas Mahut.The year before Jamie was in a couple of Slam finals so he learned what it was like to do to get there and he also learned what it was like to play in one, she said. I think he used that to his advantage and has formed a good partnership with Bruno and thats the key to doubles. Its important to stick with the same partner for a long time because its a 12 month rolling ranking.And on the Murray family plans for Christmas, she added: Well have to plan some extra special dreadful Christmas jumpers.
