It was the third straight time the world no. 1 and 2 players had met in the final at Monte Carlo.

After winning the first set Nadal fell behind 0-4 in the second. The King of Clay then stormed back to take the title. Nadal became the first player since New Zealand’s Anthony Wilding from 1911-14 to win four straight Monte Carlo titles.

It will be interesting to see how Federer will feel after yet again losing to Nadal on clay. The Swiss player is desperate to win the French Open this year in order to complete a career grand slam. He recently appointed a new coach to help with his quest for a French Open  title.
