Mexican Open: Rafael Nadal wins third title

World number two Rafael Nadal has won his third Mexican Open title after cruising past Taylor Fritz 6-3 6-2 in the final.

Top seed Nadal did not lose a set all tournament and powered past Fritz at Acapulco to win his 85th singles title, and his first of the season.

“I couldn’t be happier, I played great from beginning to end,” Nadal said.

“Acapulco was the first big title that I won in my career, so to be able to stay here after 15 years is amazing.”

The Spaniard’s first two Mexican titles were on clay in 2005 and 2013, but he completed his hat-trick on hard court.
