Djokovic Wins 3rd 2009 ATP Title in Beijing

Oct. 11 -- Second-seeded Novak Djokovic of Serbia captured his third ATP title of the year at the China Open, outlasting Marin Cilic of Croatia in a blistering baseline battle, 6-2, 7-6 (7/4).

The big-hitting Cilic -- who beat fourth seed Nikolay Davydenko and top seed Rafael Nadal en route to the final -- kept up a barrage of powerful shots from the backcourt but Djokovic mixed up the pace to throw him off, forcing errors.

After holding serve to go up 3-2 in the first, Djokovic broke Cilic straight away and then a second time to take the set, with the 21-year-old Croatian the victim of two unlucky net cords in the final game. In the second, both players traded breaks three times to force a tiebreak, with the Croatian failing to serve out the set twice.

Djokovic took control mid-tiebreak, winning a rally that left Cilic sitting on the court to go up 4-2. The Serb closed it out on his second match point when the Croatian sent an inside-out forehand sailing wide.

Both men will travel to Shanghai for the next leg of the ATP Tour's swing through Asia.
