World number one Rafael Nadal won his fifth consecutive Conde de Godo tournament on Sunday after beating fellow Spanish David Ferrer in straight sets 6-2, 7-5. It was Nadal's fourth title this season and 24th on clay courts, a surface on which he is unbeaten since 2007. This year's other trophies are the Australian Open, the Indian Wells and Monte Carlo tournaments.
Ferrer, who is number 10 in the Association of Tennis Professionals rankings, performed well and tested Nadal's game, trying to wear him down. Ferrer sought openings on his right, but there were rarely enough during the first set.

The pair tied at 5-5, but it was then that Nadal pulled ahead decisively with two sets in a row, to win the match 7-5 and the tournament as well.
