TENNIS: Serbia’s Novak Djokovic will become the new world No3 after winning the China Open.
Djokovic, 22, will overtake Britain’s Andy Murray when the new rankings are announced on Monday after beating Croatian talent Marin Cilic 6-2, 7-6 (7-4) in Beijing yesterday.

Following a 90-minute rain delay, Djokovic broke twice to take the first set and fought back well in the second after Cilic wasted several chances to take the match into a deciding set.
