History man: Rafael Nadal's defeat of David Ferrer mendes he has won a record eighth French Open
Rafael Nadal became the first man ever to win eight singles titles at one grand slam with a straight-sets win over Spanish compatriot David Ferrer at the French Open.
The third seed dominated the match to win 6-3 6-2 6-3 in two hours and 16 minutes, making it seven titles from nine tournaments since his return from seven months out with a knee injury in February.
Nadal has now won 12 grand slam titles in all and 59 matches from 60 at Roland Garros, more than any other male player.
