Third seed Andujar won all three of his break-point opportunities as he took the opening set, but was pushed the distance in the second before claiming a 6-1 7-6 (7-5) victory in one hour and 46 minutes.

The victory was only the second title of 26-year-old Andujar's career, following on from his success in Casablanca last year.

He said: "I'm very happy, as this is very special to me.

"I didn't think that I could win here twice in a row. It was difficult with the three rain delays.

"Albert was a bit nervous at the beginning and I played very well during the first set. The second set could have gone in both directions. It wasn't easy to remain calm in the end."
