Gallery: Rafael Nadal Crushes Federer in Rome Final

Rafael Nadal dropped only four games as he beat Roger Federer in 68 minutes to win his seventh Italian Open title last Sunday. In the 30th career meeting between the pair, who share 28 Grand Slam singles titles, the Spaniard raced to a 6-1 6-3 victory at Rome’s Foro Italico. He has now won six of his eight tournaments since returning in February from a seven-month break due to injury. “If you’d told me that four or five months ago I would have said you are crazy,” said the 26-year-old, who has won 36 of 38 matches in 2013. “So after eight tournaments, six victories and two finals, it’s a dream for me.” Check out the gallery below from the final below and click here for the whole tournament recap.
