Andy Murray is in positive frame of mind ahead of the ATP World Tour Finals in London despite being knocked out of the Paris Masters by Radek Stepanek.

The world number four went down 1-6 6-3 6-4 in the third round to the Czech - Murray back on court to play Stepanek just 14 hours after beating James Blake in their second-round match shortly before 2am on Thursday morning.

Murray admitted a rest will do him good ahead of the finals at the 02 Arena after his return to action following a six-week injury lay-off brought victory in Valencia.

The Scot told www.atptennis.com: "Obviously to win a tournament after that long out was great.

"I wanted to try and play as many matches as possible. I would have signed up for playing seven matches and winning six of them before these couple of tournaments, and it was kind of just what I needed before London.

"I get nine days' rest to get rid of all the niggles and stiffness. I'll be feeling good going in there, I'm sure, a lot better than I would have been if I had gone out early both weeks."
