Almagro beats Gasquet in Swiss Open final

Spanish tennis player Nicolas Almagro has beaten France's Richard Gasquet in the Swiss Open final in Gstaad.

Second-seeded Almagro took just 75 minutes on the outdoor clay to overpower Gasquet 7-5, 6-1.

It is Almagro’s seventh title and the second of the year after Bastad two weeks ago.

Seventh-seeded Gasquet was also aiming for a seventh title after winning at Nice earlier this year. He won Gstaad in 2006.
