PARIS, June 11 -- The No. 4 seed Rafael Nadal won his 10th title at the French Open with a 6-2, 6-3, 6-1 victory over the third-seeded Stan Wawrinka in the men's singles final here on Sunday.

The Spaniard became the first player to win 10 titles in any Grand Slam tournament in the Open Era. He took the sole second place on the all-time list among men's players for most Grand Slam titles won with his 15th trophy of career.

"Today was a very important day for me. I have been through some tough moments, injuries, so it's great to have big success like this again," said Nadal.

"Wawrinka is a very dangerous opponent, so my mentality was that I cannot give him the chance to be back on the match," he added.

Nadal led their head-to-head record at 15-3 against Wawrinka, also owning an advantage of 6-1 on clay. He continued his in-form performance on his favorite surface, where he recorded the most wins in 2017, at Roland Garros without losing a set en route to the final.

Nadal won all his nine previous final appearances in French Open, and Wawrinka won his first three Grand Slam finals, the 2017 Australian Open, the 2017 Roland Garros and the 2016 US Open.

Two players held their serve in the first four games, before Nadal rode on a four-game winning streak to set it 6-2 in the opening set, where the Swiss No. 3 seed suffered a total of 17 unforced errors.

Wawrinka could not convert his threatening single-handed backhand attack into an upper hand, and Nadal, in quest for a record-breaking 10th success at Roland Garros, pleased crowds a lot throughout the match with his consecutive high-quality forehand shots.
