Andy Murray beat Grigor Dimitrov in straight sets to win the China Open on Sunday as he closes in on Novak Djokovic’s number one ranking.
The world number two lost six consecutive points in the second set to be pushed into a tiebreak by the unseeded Bulgarian.
But Dimitrov was unable to hold his serve in the decider, conceding the title to the Scot 6-4, 7-6 (7/2).
