The world number one wins his first tournament since the 2024 UK Championship with victory over Shaun Murphy in Berlin.
World number one Judd Trump claimed his first trophy since the UK Championship in November 2024 with a 10-4 victory over Shaun Murphy in the German Masters final in Berlin.
It is a record-extending fourth title in the event for Trump, who also won in 2020, 2021 and 2024.
The 36-year-old won the first two frames of the match with breaks of 101 and 71 only for Murphy to level it at 2-2 before Trump pulled away again to lead 5-3 at the interval.
Former world champion Murphy had been hoping to win the event's Brandon Parker Trophy which commemorates his friend and manager who had been a key figure in promoting the Berlin tournament before he died of cancer in 2020.
He started the evening session with intent and a break of 60 left him in control of the ninth frame only for Trump to return to the table and clear it to start a run of four consecutive frames and move close to victory.
Although Murphy gave himself a glimmer of hope coming from 51 points down to snatch frame 13 on the black, Trump got over the line in the next.
