Andy Murray beats Milos Raonic to win second Wimbledon title

Andy Murray wins his second Wimbledon title with a straight-sets victory over sixth seed Milos Raonic.

Andy Murray has beaten Milos Raonic in straight sets to win his second Wimbledon singles title.

The world number two nullified the powerful serve of Raonic, who was beaten by Murray in the final at Queens' Club last month, with the Canadian taking five games to register his first ace of the match.

Murray won the first set 6-4 after a crucial break in the seventh game, but needed a tie-break to take the second as he built a hard-fought advantage on Centre Court.

Buoyed on by a partisan crowd, the Scot dominated a third-set tie-break to win his third Grand Slam crown, his first since victory at SW19 in 2013.

Murray was reduced to tears after the match, as he became the first Briton since Fred Perry in 1935 to win multiple Wimbledon singles titles.
