Top seed Andy Murray of Britain breezed past South African Kevin Anderson in straight sets to win his fourth Queen's Club title here.

The 28-year-old needed just 64 minutes to win 6-3, 6-4 over the 17th-ranked Anderson on Sunday, Xinhua reported.

Murray, who also won the grass court event in 2009, 2011 and 2013, had earlier finished a rain-delayed semi-final with a 6-3, 7-6 (7-4) victory over Viktor Troicki of Serbia.

"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 said.

"There are no guarantees that winning here gives you a Wimbledon title."

He became the fifth player to win the event four times following John McEnroe, Boris Becker, Lleyton Hewitt and Andy Roddick.
