Murray's off for a glass of champagne, I'm off for a cup of cocoa and an early night.

Hats off to the British number one, who really seems to be hitting his straps as he looks to end a difficult year on a high.

Will we see him in London in November? Stick with us over the coming weeks to find out.

Goodbye.

Murray's victory sealed 30th ATP title in his 44th final.

He said he might allow himself one cheeky glass of bubbly before heading to Valencia for a tournament which carries 500 points. Then to Paris, where there are 1,000 on offer for the winner in the final qualifying event.

Ross McD:, external Proper gutsy performance from Murray there. Should give him real confidence going into Valencia and Paris.

Andy Murray: "It always feels good to win a tournament. It was an extremely difficult match. He deserved to win the first set, I deserved the second and the third could have gone either way. But it's been a great week and I'm very happy.

On the Race to London: "It's the same for both of us. He won in Shanghai last week, I won here. Whoever qualifies for the finals will deserve it. It's the best players over the 12 months. We'll see over the next weeks, but it's going to be very close."

The victory moves Murray up to seventh in the Race to London standings with two events still to play. The top eight qualify for the season-ending ATP Tour finals.

Ferrer cracks a forehand just wide of the sideline. Then he goes long to give Murray two match points. Murray finds the outside line with an ace. The line judge calls "out". Murray challenges. The replay shows it caught the line and Murray wins the title.

Murray lets out an anguished scream as a chance goes begging. But a huge winner on the next point makes it 15-30. Ferrer's backhand is a fraction long, giving Murray break points. And he finds a winner to break the Spaniard for the third time in a row to go 6-5 up. What a turnaround. Murray will serve for the match.

So, can Andy Murray bring holding serve back into fashion? Looks like it. Two big serves and a booming forehand take him to 40-0.

A sweet backhand winner makes it all square in the decider. Over to you David.

Incredible scenes. We've had four breaks of serve in a row and now Murray has two chances to make it a fifth and keep the match alive. Ferrer double faults. Murray is right back in it.

After three consecutive breaks of serve, Ferrer punches home a volley to put Murray under pressure again at 0-30. Murray wins the next point, then cramps up on a forehand volley to give Ferrer two break points. The Spaniard only needs one to take himself to within one game of the title.

Surely time for the Vienna DJ to hit them with a blast of "London Calling" by the Clash. Ferrer is in the driving seat for the ATP Tour finals at the moment, but Murray's response to back-to-back breaks is excellent as he wins the first three points on the Spaniard's serve. Ferrer tugs it back to 30-40 but Murray drills a flat forehand that Ferrer can't return and we're back on serve.

This is a real humdinger, but you wouldn't know it from the expressionless faces of the Vienna public. Every point is a real tussle. Murray squeezes 30-15 up then Ferrer whips a forehand return winner down the line. Murray nets a backhand. Break point Ferrer....

Murray saves it, then keeps out a second. Here's the third ... long rally, but Murray is looking a bit desperate and Ferrer's greater power and purpose tells as Murray dumps a forehand into the net.

Both players are starting to look a bit weary. Murray wants to hit right back here but at 15-30 he wastes a chance when his return loops long. Ferrer holds on to take the lead in the decider.

Ferrer goes after the Murray serve, finding the corner with a forehand to open up three break points. Murray finds a timely ace then puts away a volley. One more break point to save, but Ferrer ups his game and takes the point with a beautiful volleyed pick-up off his toes. Murray whacks his feet with his racquet in frustration. We could be here for some time yet...

Murray won his first title in 15 months at the end of September at the inaugural Shenzhen Open. Is he on the way to number two here?

Ferrer is certainly showing no signs of making this easy for him, blasting 40-0 ahead on serve. Murray pegs him right back to deuce, but can't go any further, eventually giving up the ghost with a forehand that lands some way beyond the baseline.

Murray is on the front foot, swinging freely and keeping the points short as he goes 40-0 ahead on his own serve. Murray once again seals the game with an ace.

Now for the decider then. From 30-30, an exquisite angled forehand from Murray gives him a break point and an early chance to seize the initiative. Ferrer nets a backhand and Murray is now in full charge.

Ferrer is not giving this one up. He takes the first two points on the Murray serve before the Scot puts away a smash. Murray does not look back, earning some fortune from from a net-chord on the way to levelling up the match at one set apiece.

Ross McD:, external If Murray does come through from here it'll be more a boost to his confidence by beating a tough opponent than his points tally.
