SHANGHAI --?Andy Murray admits his proximity to world No. 1 Novak Djokovic in the rankings has caused him to reassess his short-term targets.A straight-sets victory over Roberto Bautista Agut in the final of the Shanghai Masters, winning 7-6 (1), 6-1 in 96 minutes, gave the Scot his sixth title of the year.More importantly, it moved him to within 915 points of Djokovic, who lost to Bautista Agut in the semifinals.With Murray currently in top form, having won 20 sets in succession to take the China and Shanghai titles, he has now set his sights on the Serbians position at the top of the rankings -- although he admits overhauling the 12-time Grand Slam winner will be difficult.My goal wasnt to finish No. 1 at the end of this year, but in the early parts of next year, there is an opportunity, he said. 900 points doesnt seem like loads. But Novak will win matches. He is the best player in the world. I dont think he has lost an indoor [match] in a long time.Murrays form is on an upward curve, and the Olympic gold medalist is pleased with how changes to his game have made a difference.In the last few months, I have won a lot of matches and made improvements, he added.I have been moving forward better and changed the direction of the ball better. I have also come up with some bigger serves when I have needed them.Murrays victory in Shanghai was his 41st career title, and he won it with very little fuss once he had comfortably negotiated a first-set tiebreak.Things went with serve until Murray broke his Spanish opponent to take a 4-3 lead, but when Bautista Agut broke back and then made it 6-5, Murray took the first set to a tiebreak with a love game.He cruised through the tiebreak to make it 19 sets won in a row, before three breaks of service to one for his opponent in the second set eased the Briton into a 5-1 lead. From there he closed out the match with a number of 100 mph second serves and powerful groundstrokes.Jordan Schuhe Sale . -- The proud fathers huddled near the Dallas Stars dressing room, smiling, laughing and telling stories while wearing replica green sweaters of their sons team.

Dallas hasnt ruled out the star quarterback for Sunday nights game against Philadelphia, but all signs point to Romos back injury pushing Kyle Orton into the starting role after two years of limited play as the backup. Surely Ortons name isnt the first that comes to mind for fans wanting a change after years of damaging interceptions, fumbles or, most infamously, the field goal flub when Romo dropped the snap on a kick that could have won his first playoff game in 2006.

A hearing was held in Rio on Monday.The court said its judges ruled that the International Paralympic Committee did not violate any procedural rule in banning the Russian team two weeks ago.(The) decision to ban the (Russian team) was made in accordance with the IPC Rules and was proportionate in the circumstances, the court said in a statement.An appeal by Russias Paralympic committee to Switzerlands federal court is possible though unlikely before the games open, Alexei Karpenko, an attorney representing the Russian athletes, said in televised remarks.The Swiss supreme court could intervene if the legal process was abused but not judge the merits of the evidence -- which the CAS panel was satisfied had proven that Russian authorities organized cheating.The Russian appeal did not file any evidence contradicting the facts on which the IPC decision was based, the CAS panel said.The world Paralympic body used evidence from a World Anti-Doping Agency inquiry into a Russian state-orchestrated program of doping and cover-ups which ran from 2011 to 2015.Russian authorities also corrupted results at the 2014 Sochi Winter Games and Winter Paralympics by swapping tainted doping samples for clean ones at the official WADA-accredited laboratory, the inquiry said.The IPC said in Rio two weeks ago it had evidence of manipulated doping teests relating to 44 Russian athletes, including 27 from competitors in eight sports that are part of the Paralympic program.ddddddddddddThen, IPC President Philip Craven said of Russia that: Their medals over morals mentality disgusts me.On Tuesday, Craven said the ruling from a court based in the Olympic home city of Lausanne, Switzerland, was a sad day for the Paralympic Movement, but we hope also a new beginning.Todays decision underlines our strong belief that doping has absolutely no place in Paralympic sport, and further improves our ability to ensure fair competition and a level playing field for all Para athletes around the world, Craven said in a statement.Still, it was not a day for celebration and we have enormous sympathy for the Russian athletes who will now miss out on the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games, the British official said.Craven is also a member of the International Olympic Committee which declined to use similar evidence from WADA investigator Richard McLarens report to take the toughest sanction against Russia for the Rio Olympics which ended Sunday.Instead, the IOC asked individual sports governing bodies to decide if Russian teams and athletes could compete. Russias weightlifting team was banned and only one track and field athlete was ruled eligible.Russia ended the Rio Olympics in fourth place in the medal table. Its athletes won 56 medals, including 19 gold.With Russia excluded from the Paralympics, the IPC said it will now redistribute the 267 slots that had been secured by Russian athletes to compete. ' ' '
