Djokovic beats Wawrinka to win the Rome Masters @ Sunday May 11

Novak Djokovic's preparations for the French Open continued apace as he beat Stanislas Wawrinka 4-6 6-3 6-3 at the Rome Masters for a 10th career title.

His third victory of 2008 - he won the Australian Open in January and the Masters Series event in Indian Wells in March - will move Djokovic within 310 points of second-ranked Rafael Nadal in the ATP rankings.

Djokovic did not face a seeded player all week, registering wins against Steve Darcis and Igor Andreev in his opening two matches and then seeing his opponents in the quarter-final and semi-final - Nicolas Almagro and Radek Stepanek - withdraw through injury.
