Current world No.3 Andy Murray won the Queen's Club title against Kevin Anderson in London. He trampled his opponent in just 64 minutes with a score of 6-3 6-4.
It seems like the Scott had a perfect warm up, finishing his rain-delayed semi-final match with Viktor Troicki 6-3 7-6 (7-4) earlier on the same day before his Finals matchup.
His campaign at the Aegon Championships is a part of his conditioning towards the upcoming Wimbledon.
"I played better as the week went on and hopefully I can continue that into Wimbledon," Murray said after the game.
"I tried to play each point and come up with some great shots. I had to play that way if I wanted to win today."
With this victory, the 28-year-old joined John McEnroe, Boris Becker, Lleyton Hewitt, and Andy Roddick as the only tennis players who have the most titles (4) at the Queen's. The 2012 Olympian was looking forward to duplicate his success two years ago, when he won the same title and went to win a Major in the Centre Court too.
"It's great preparation obviously, but I think it has only happened six times where someone has won Queen's and gone on to win Wimbledon," Murray added.
"There are no guarantees that winning here gives you a Wimbledon title."
When asked about his further preparation for the Wimbledon he said, "I need to train well the next five, six days, prepare as well as I can.
"It's been a really good start, but it's a long way to go before Wimbledon even starts, and then all sorts of things can happen during Slams."
