Nadal wins Madrid Open

Rafael Nadal claimed victory in the Madrid Open, beating Roger Federer 6-4 7-6 and in the process, returning to the number two in the rankings ahead of Novak Djokovic.

Nadal has so far won the three major Masters clay court tournaments this year, Monte Carlo, Rome and now Madrid. Next up is the French Open, the second grand slam event of the calendar, and Nadal has to be favourite to add another French crown to his trophy cupboard.
