Grand Slams more important than ranking for Murray,
For me winning Grand Slams is more important than being No 1. Players are judged on how many they win – that's how good their career is.

But if you are winning Grand Slams obviously you are pretty close to being No 1 anyway.

For me, I've always set goals for each year. First the top 100, then the top 20, then the top 10. Now it is a Grand Slam.

If I can do that in the next couple of years then I'll be going for the No 1 spot.

'andy murray ranking' is a popular search for Murray hence the creation of this page.  I'm not quite sure what should be put into this page but what we have now is a start. If anyone has any ideas for this page then please get involved. The main thing is the content relates to Murray's ranking in some way.

Out of interest, Mark, how do you keep Andy's ranking updated from the ATP site?

I have a script that goes to Murray's ATP profile each day > it stores the code of the web page in a txt file (like a cache) on this server > then the script looks over the web page's code within that txt file and knows which part of it represents Murray's Entry and Race ranking > it then displays that data on the home page.

The process is called screen scraping Smile
