After their thrilling semi-final was halted due to a storm at 3-3 in the fourth set on Friday, Murray levelled the contest at two sets apiece.

But the Serb rallied in the decider to wrap up his eighth successive win over his fellow 28-year-old who he had also beaten in January's Australian Open final.

Earlier, Wawrinka shattered French hopes of a first men's singles champion in 32 years when he outlasted Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 6-3, 6-7 (1/7), 7-6 (7/3) 6-4.

The 2014 Australian Open winner reached the final in Paris for the first time having lost just two sets along the way.

For Tsonga, the dream of emulating Yannick Noah, the last Frenchman to win at Roland Garros in 1983, was over for another year. The last Frenchman to reach the final was Henri Leconte in 1988.

"It was a huge battle, very difficult physically, a lot of intensity on both sides and it could have gone either way," Wawrinka said.
