Andy Murray had a close encounter with Rafael Nadal, but in the end came through to win the exhibition title.
Murray solidly took the first set with a score of 64, then Nadal broke Murray at 5-5 and took the second set 75. The third set made spectators stand in applause as both players grinded at each other, but Murray came through at 3-3 to break Nadal twice to win the match with a score of 64 57 63.
Murray collected his $250,000 for winning the event, but beating Federer and Nadal would have been the highlight of it.
He now will head to the Qatar Open in Doha next week for his first match on the ATP circuit.
