PARIS: Rafael Nadal pulled away to beat Casper Ruud 6-3, 6-3, 6-0 in the French Open final on Sunday for his 14th championship at Roland Garros and 22nd Grand Slam title overall, adding to two records he already owned.
Nadal's victory came two days after his 36th birthday and made him the oldest title winner in the history of the claycourt tournament.
Ruud led 3-1 in the second set, a deficit that spurred Nadal to raise his level he took the last 11 games.
Nadal played so crisply and cleanly, accumulating more than twice as many winners as Ruud, 37 to 16. Nadal also committed fewer unforced errors, making just 16 to Ruud's 26.
