PARIS (AFP) -- Andy Murray turned around a tiebreak to keep his dream of the Masters Cup alive with a 7-6 (7/5), 6-3 victory over Jarkko Nieminen on Wednesday to reach the third round of the Paris Indoor Masters.

French racket magician Fabrice Santoro earned the first upset of the final week of the ATP season, rolling over listless third-seeded Novak Djokovic 6-3, 6-2.
The Serb booked his place at the yearend wrap-up weeks ago, joining Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Nikolay Davydenko, Andy Roddick and David Ferrer.
The British number one kept pace with his rivals for the yearend championship, which begins in Shanghai on November 11, as he recovered from 3-5 down in a first-set decider.
Murray, who edged up a spot to provisional 10th in the chase through his win in 1hr 37min, will face a test on Thursday against Santoro.
""It's a great position to be in, considering obviously what happened to me,"" said Murray, who missed more than three months of 2007 with a wrist injury.
""I'm not as nervous as I probably would have been had I not had the injury.
""I'm playing well, I feel fresh. That might not have been the case if I didn't have the injury as well.
""I'm just happy to have a chance of qualifying.""
Two positions remain to complete the yearend lineup with 14 men still in with a chance.
Murray is lying amidst a group of rivals including Spain's Tommy Robredo, Czech Tomas Berdych, and American James Blake.
German Tommy Haas stands on provisional eighth place while number seven Fernando Gonzalez missed a chance to clinch a spot after losing in the second round on Tuesday to Mikhail Youzhny.
But the 20-year-old Scot said he's not keen on possibly traveling to China as an alternate if he doesn't qualify into the eight-man field.
""I don't know if I'd go if I was in as an alternate or not, you want to be there on merit.
""But I've heard from a few guys that (Andy) Roddick might not be playing. I just have to wait and see.
""As it stands right now, I'm going to be the third alternate, I still need to win a couple of matches.""
Murray forced Nieminen, last week's Basle finalist against Federer, to save seven break points in the first set.
But the Finn earned a 5-3 lead in the tiebreaker only to lose it. In the second, he broke for 3-1 but immediately lost the edge as Murray swept the last four games.
