Marin Cilic produced a great comeback to beat Novak Djokovic in the Fever-Tree Championship final.

The top seed saved a match point in the second set before going on to win 5-7, 7-6 (7-4), 6-3 in just under three hours to secure his first title of the year and 18th overall.

Djokovic, who hasn’t won a title in nearly a year, broke in game 12 of the opening set and then manufactured a match point in game 10 of the second set.

However, Cilic held firm and then won the tie-breaker before claiming the crucial break in game eight of the decider.
