David Ferrer has won his second Swedish Open title after defeating fellow Spaniard Nicolas Almagro 6-2, 6-2.

The No. 5-ranked Ferrer was never challenged during the clay-court match, which was his 11th career victory over Almagro.

Almagro has never beaten Ferrer.

Ferrer last won the Swedish Open in 2007.

Robert Lindstedt of Sweden and Horia Tecia of Romania won the men's doubles at the tournament earlier Sunday, defeating Alexander Peya of Austria and Bruno Soares of Brazil 6-3, 7-6 (5).
