Sports Current Affairs 2011. World number one Rafael Nadal won Barcelona Open title for the sixth time

World number one Rafael Nadal defeated his Spanish compatriot David Ferrer 6-2, 6-4 to win a sixth Barcelona Open title in seven years on 24 April 2011.


Nadal followed up his victory over Ferrer in the Monte Carlo Masters final with a display of brutal hitting and near-impeccable defence to become the first player in the Open era to win two tournaments at least six times. He had defated Ferrer in the 2008 and 2009 Barcelona Open title. In 2010 had withdrawn from the tournament on account of injury.


Nadal’s latest success Barcelona Open marked his 31st clay title, putting him one clear of Bjorn Borg and Manuel Orantes on the all-time winners list and third behind Guillermo Vilas (45) and Thomas Muster (40).
