LONDON (Reuters) - Kei Nishikori has made a habit of breaking new ground in his short tennis career and the 24-year-old Japanese was at it again on Sunday with a stunning debut at the ATP World Tour Finals.

An emphatic 6-4 6-4 victory over Andy Murray was his first in four matches against the Scot and set the young trailblazer up for an electrifying end to a memorable year in which he became the first Asian male to reach a grand slam final.
