LONDON -- The Murray brothers bid to dominate the year-end rankings is still on.Jamie Murray and Bruno Soares place in the doubles semifinals at the O2 Arena was confirmed Thursday evening after taking the first set against Ivan Dodig and Marcelo Melo, in a match they went on to win 6-3, 3-6, 10-6.But they wont even have to hit another ball to finish the season as the No. 1-ranked doubles team, if French duo Nicolas Mahut and Pierre-Hugues Herbert -- who have already been eliminated -- lose their final round robin match Friday.Which way would they prefer to do it? Dont really care, said Murray, smiling.No, I care. Finish for us tomorrow. Its easier, laughed Soares.Thats true, concurred Jamie.I dont know actually. Im joking, continued the Scots Brazilian partner. So whatever happens happens. We got to do our thing here. before wanting to be No. 1, we want to win the tournament. By that we got to win the semifinals. Thats what were here for. We have to focus on our side. I think its the most important thing.It has been an incredible year for the Murray brothers, with Andy winning a third major at Wimbledon, retaining his Olympics title and ending Djokovics 122-week reign at the top of the singles rankings.Jamie did something in 2016 Andy has never accomplished, however, winning two majors in a single year -- he and Soares lifted both the Australian Open and US Open doubles titles.The job is far from over, though, especially for Andy, who could face a winner-takes-all shootout in Sundays final against Djokovic for the year-end No. 1 singles ranking.It was probably harder for Andy than us because Djokovic was winning everything, Jamie said when reflecting on the season. To get past him was going to take a monumental effort to do that.Doubles was a lot more open, I felt. A lot of the teams very close in level. The French guys kind of dominated for a while, especially the first half of the season. But we won the right tournaments that kept us in the hunt for it. We got a chance this week. Well be doing our best over the weekend to make that happen.Jamie also revealed his father will be coming down from Scotland to watch on what could be an historic weekend for his two sons.The opportunity to have the chance to do it is something special, he continued. Im sure the three of us are going to do our best over the next three or four days to try to be there at the end of it.We get good crowd support. That obviously helps. I would hope that we would be more supported than other players because its in our backyard.Its nice for us to play in London, in the UK, in front of friends, family, our people. It always gives you that extra edge, I think.

RIO DE JANEIRO -- Aleksander Lesun had four years to get over his disappointment in London, four years to prepare for his next opportunity.When it came, he was ready.No missed shots. No missed medals. Only gold.Calm and collected on a stage he had once failed on before, Lesun captured gold in mens modern pentathlon at the Rio de Janeiro Games on Saturday for his first Olympic medal.Pavlo Tymoschenko of Ukraine earned silver and Ismael Hernandez Uscanga bronze for Mexicos first modern pentathlon medal.I really upset (about London), but I tried to be calm and do the same thing, said Lesun, who won Russias fourth modern pentathlon gold in the past five Olympics.Lesun has been one of the most consistent pentathletes in the world.The 28-year-old who was born in Belarus and now lives Moscow won world titles in 2012 and 2014, never finishing worse than third in seven world championships. He also came to Rio as the world record holder in overall points (1,534) and fencing (586).The glaring omission on Lesuns resume was an Olympic medal. He was in position for one at the 2012 London Games, entering the final round in third place, but needed 10 shots to hit five targets and fell to fourth.Lesun and Tymoschenko were the favorites heading into the Rio Games and lived up to expectations.Lesun set an Olympic record in the openning fencing with 268 points, finished 22nd in swimming and had a 23-point lead after the one-touch fencing bonus round.dddddddddddd He maintained his lead after the equestrian event and stayed through the final event, a combination of running and shooting.Despite Tymoschenko charging through the field, Lesun was far enough ahead that he could miss 10 shots in the final event. With Tymoschenko well behind, Lesun waved to the crowd about 30 yards from the finish line and collapsed to the ground shortly after taking the tape.I did my job, Lesun said.Tymoschenko made a huge jump to the medal stand. The 29-year-old from Kiev is the reigning world champion and ran like it in Rio, moving up from eighth to second in the running/shooting combination for his countrys second Olympic medal in modern pentathlon.I came here not just participate, I came here for a medal, Tymoschenko said. There was some pressure, but last year I had my biggest achievement winning the world championship, so it was OK here in the Olympic Games.Hernandez Uscanga moved up to sixth after a clean equestrian ride and made up ground in the final event, edging Frances Valetin Prades by a second to capture the bronze medal.
