PARIS (AP) -- Third-seeded Novak Djokovic of Serbia has won his first Paris Masters title by defeating Gael Monfils of France 6-2, 5-7, 7-6 (3).

The victory on Sunday gives the 22-year-old Djokovic back-to-back ATP titles after his win over top-ranked Roger Federer in the Swiss Indoors final last Sunday.

The third-ranked Serb will be among the eight players who will face off at the ATP World Tour Finals from Nov. 22-29 in London.
