Jannik Sinner breaks an eight-year Andy Murray record after beating Novak Djokovic to win the Shanghai Masters

Jannik Sinner settled his head-to-head record with Novak Djokovic after beating him in the Shanghai Masters final.

Sinner struggled to break Djokovic in their Shanghai Masters clash, but eventually managed to beat the Serbian 7-6(7-4), 6-3.

The Italian now has 65 wins for the season, with Djokovic ultimately failing in his efforts to win a 100th tour-level title.

Sinner is now the youngest Shanghai Masters winner, with the world number one dropping just one set on his way to the trophy.

The victory comes after he lost out in the China Open final earlier this month, with Carlos Alcaraz coming from behind to beat the top seed.
