Andy Murray wins Shanghai Masters beating Roger Federer

Andy Murray showed he is back on top form by beating Roger Federer in straight sets to win the Shanghai Masters.

The Briton finally put the memory of his early exit at the US Open well and truly behind him as he won 6-3 6-2 to claim his second title of the year and sixth at the elite Masters 1000 level.

He broke serve in the first game of the match and combined his usual breathless defence with numerous spectacular winners as he came through in one hour 25 minutes, saving all six break points he faced.
