Djokovic who ends the year as world number two, won 6-3 6-4 to retain his ATP World Tour Finals title.

The Serb lost the world number one title to Nadal last month who has won 10 tournaments since returning from injury at the beginning of the year. 

Djokovic has extended his unbeaten run to 22 matches and denied Nadal the chance to win his first World Tour Finals title.

"It's the highest quality of tennis that you have next to Grand Slams, because every match that you play, you play against a top 10 player every second day," said Djokovic. "Especially this year, with back to back Paris Bercy tournament and London, wasn't easy for sure.

"I am very proud of the way that I managed to recover and perform better and better as the tournament went on.

"I had the tough three setters against all of the opponents in my group, and then I managed to raise the level of tennis in the semi-finals and finals when it mattered the most."
