Andy Murray gave himself the perfect birthday present as he won his first Italian Open title with a 6-3 6-3 victory over Novak Djokovic. It was a first win on clay against Djokovic in five attempts for the Scot, who turned 29 on Sunday. He broke serve once in the first set and twice in the second in Rome to win in one hour and 35 minutes. Murray will return to second in the world rankings before the French Open, which begins on 22 May.
