Andy Murray captured arguably the biggest title of his career to date with a straight-sets defeat of Novak Djokovic at the Sony Ericsson Open yesterday.



The British number one beat third seed Djokovic 6-2, 7-5 in Miami for his third Masters title, following wins in Cincinnati and Madrid last year.



After dominating the first set in searing heat, Murray fought back from 5-2 down to clinch the second.



The Scot now heads back to Europe for the start of the clay-court season.
