Andy Murray's not fooling around. 

A couple of months after his season appeared to be a lost cause, Murray has bounced back. Yesterday he qualified for the ATP World Tour Finals with an impressive 6-3, 6-3 win over Grigor Dimitrov. Ignore the scoreline. It wasn't that close. Murray dismantled Dimitrov. 

It was the kind of "sho nuff" beatdown that can give a man his swagger back. 

The win certainly gave Murray his place back among the elite. It also answered his critics who had questions about Murray all season long. He faced scrutiny about everything from his female coach to his place among the Big Four.

Forget all that now.

Murray is sending a message to the rest of the ATP Tour. He's using his racket to make a statement. He is playing like the man who captured the 2013 Wimbledon title. 

After the match against Dimitrov, Murray told a member of the ATP Staff that he noticed there were no letdowns in the match. 

In some of the matches that I've had against the top, top players, I've had some periods in the match where my level had dropped off a little bit, and the best players capitalise on those moments. I didn't have any of them today. I played well from start to finish...I made it very difficult for Grigor. I hardly made any mistakes at all throughout the match.

Since crashing out of the U.S. Open in the quarterfinals, Murray has been on a tear. He has won three titles in two months. 

Most impressive has been how well Murray is moving on the court. This late in the season, Murray appears to have fresh legs. He is peaking just in time for his return to London. 

Last year, although he qualified, Murray missed the year-end finals because of a back injury. He underwent back surgery in September. 

He returned to play in Doha in December 2013, but looked less than stellar. ...
