Andy Murray has once again claimed the crown at the Shanghai Rolex Masters.
Yesterday, the British tennis player defeated Roberto Bautista Agut of Spain 7-6 (7-1) 6-1 to reclaim his men's singles title. It is the third Shanghai Masters win for Murray, who also picked up the title in 2010 and 2011.
Murray also claimed the title at the China Open in Beijing last week.
The Shanghai win gives Murray 1,000 ranking points, putting him closer to finishing 2016 at number one. The 29-year-old Scot is 915 points behind Serbia's Novak Djokovic, who Agut defeated in the semi-finals.
