Nadal wins record 10th Monte Carlo title

Rafael Nadal won the Monte Carlo Masters for a record 10th time with a dominant 6-1, 6-3 victory over fellow Spaniard Albert Ramos-Vinolas.

It was Nadal’s first title in almost a year and he became the first man in the Open era to win the same event 10 times.

The 30-year-old is aiming for a 10th French Open title as well next month.

He won eight Monte Carlo titles in a row from 2005 to 2012 but then lost to Novak Djokovic in the 2013 final.
