Britain's Andy Murray has outclassed five-time champion Novak Djokovic to clinch his first ATP World Tour Finals Title and end 2016 as the world No 1.

The Wimbledon champion produced an outstanding display to triumph 6-3 6-4 in one hour and 43 minutes, fending off his arch rival's challenge to stay top of the rankings.

The 12-time Grand Slam winner was out of sorts against Murray and missed a number of simple shots as the unforced error count continued to rack up.

Murray eventually wrapped up the historic victory, registering his 24th win in a row and successfully defending his Olympic title.
