The top-ranked Serb was largely untroubled in clinching his 10th title of the season -- four ahead of Roger Federer and six more than Murray. It was the 58th title of his career and 26th in Masters events, two more than Federer and one behind leader Rafael Nadal.

"If you are going for the perfection, you might reach excellence," the 10-time Grand Slam champion said after dispatching Murray in 1 hour, 33 minutes. "That's the kind of mindset I have."

Djokovic also extended his winning streak to 22 matches, and he will be the favorite to win the season-ending ATP finals for the fourth straight time when that tournament starts in London on Nov. 15.

The only major he did not win this year was the French Open, losing the final to Stan Wawrinka, and it remains the only big trophy missing from his fast-growing collection of 58 career titles. .....................(more)
