Andy Murray won a seventh Masters title as world number one Novak Djokovic retired from the Cincinnati final with a shoulder injury at 6-4, 3-0 down yesterday.



It was only the second loss of the year for the Wimbledon and Australian Open champion, who has won 57 times in 2011.



Djokovic recovered from an early break to pull level in the opening set, but surrendered his serve straight after.



He received treatment between sets, but conceded defeat to hand Murray the title after netting a limp smash.



Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal both lost in the quarter-finals.
