World number one Novak Djokovic beat Andy Murray in straight sets to win his sixth Australian Open title and condemn the Briton to a fifth final defeat.


The Serb, 28, won 6-1 7-5 7-6 (7-3) to claim his sixth Melbourne title, tying the record of Australia's Roy Emerson.


Djokovic also draws level with tennis greats Bjorn Borg and Rod Laver on 11 Grand Slam titles.


Second seed Murray, 28, has now lost all five Australian Open finals he has played, four of them against Djokovic.


The Scot becomes only the second man - behind his former coach Ivan Lendl at the US Open - to lose five finals at the same Grand Slam since the open era began in 1968.
