Light rain showers meant the final was delayed by three and a half hours and Murray looked a little ragged as he lost the opening set to the world number 12.
Murray, playing his first tournament after time out with a back injury, also suffered a scare as he twisted awkwardly and hit the floor at one stage, but the 26-year-old gradually grew into the match and pulled away to seal a 5-7 7-5 6-3 win.
