Rafael Nadal has won his first title on grass since 2010 with a straight sets victory over Serbia's Viktor Troicki in the Mercedes Cup final.
Nadal, 29, who was knocked out of the French Open in the quarter-finals by another Serb, World No. 1 Novak Djokovic, earlier this month, sealed the title in Stuttgart with a 7-6, 6-3 win over Troicki.
The Spaniard becomes the first player to win the Stuttgart title both on clay (2005 & 2007) and on grass, and the victory takes his total tally of career titles to 66.
The win will improve Nadal's world ranking (currently at a ten-year low of 10th) ahead of the season's next Grand Slam in Wimbledon which starts on June 29th.
