Djokovic eases past Murray in final

Novak Djokovic beat Andy Murray yesterday for the 10th time in their last 11 meetings to lift the Paris Masters title once again.

A 6-2 6-4 victory for the world number one gave him his third successive trophy in Paris and earned him a 10th title of a season that just continues to get better.

Djokovic was playing in his 14th consecutive final — a record for a single season — and now has 22 straight wins having not lost since the final in Cincinnati in August.

Murray ended a run of eight consecutive losses to Djokovic in Montreal this summer but was comprehensively beaten in the semi-finals in Shanghai last month.

Murray will now return to London to spend time both preparing for the World Tour Finals and the Davis Cup final.
