Andy Murray continues to edge closer to the world's top ten after moving up to 12th in the ATP rankings after a good run at Indian Wells.
The British number one has moved up two places after reaching the semi-finals of the Masters Series event in California.
Murray would have moved into the top ten had he beaten Novak Djokovic and reached the final, with the Serb instead now claiming tenth spot.
The Scot has now moved on to Miami for this week's Masters Series tournament, although his participation is in doubt.
The teenager suffered ankle and hip injuries at Indian Wells and admitted: "I'll take a couple of days off, see the physios in Miami, and hopefully I will be okay."
Betfair's market for the Masters Series Sony Eriksson Open will develop later this week, with most of the world's top stars expected to feature.
Meanwhile, Murray is now trading at 7.2 in the 2007 Specials 'To Win A Grand Slam' market.
