Rafael Nadal still is unbeatable on clay as this Sunday he clinched his fourth consecutive Barcelona Open title.Indeed in the semi-final, Rafael Nadal were playing against Denis Gremelmayr, but he let the German only 15 points as he cruised to victory in 51min. 6-1 6-0. So he was sure to rest a bit before his Sunday's final against another Spanish player David Ferrer who was seeded n°2. Ferrer faced Stanislas Wawrinka in the other Semi final. With about 70% of points won on his serve and a first set win in a thrilling tie-break 10 points to 8, the match was over in less than 2 hours.
Sunday, as it suggest, was a very sunny day and after the win of the Bryans brothers in the doubles final, clinching their 46th titles for their 30th birthday (April 29). Then it was the turn for the all-Spaniard affair. After converting three of five break points to secure the first set, Nadal was then faced with seven break points against him in the second set, two of which Ferrer converted to help level the match at one set all. Nadal regained command in the third set though, winning 13 points more than Ferrer and breaking serve twice to secure the title victory in 2hrs, 14mins.
He will try to do what nobody have done or maybe will do, win 4 consecutive times 4 of the best clay court tournament, Monte-Carlo Barcelona, Rome and Roland Garros.
