Juan Ignacio Chela defeated Spanish qualifier Pablo Andujar 7-5, 6-1 on Sunday to win the BCR Open Romania for his sixth career title.

The fourth-seeded Argentine broke Andujar three times in the first and twice in the second.

Andujar broke twice in the first set but appeared to tire at 5-5, dropping eight of the next nine games. His semifinal on Saturday had lasted more than three hours.

The 105th-ranked Andujar made too many unforced errors throughout the match. At 4-1 in the second set, Andujar made two consecutive double faults to lose the game. Chela served out the match.
