Nadal's eighth

Rafael Nadal extended his record number of Barcelona titles to eight as he brushed off a slow start to beat Spanish compatriot Nicolas Almagro 6-4, 6-3 on Sunday.
Last weekend's Monte Carlo runner-up regained his accustomed position on an ATP winner's podium with his fourth title of 2013 and his third on clay for the year.
He rallied from two breaks down on a day of drizzle and heavy conditions, beating Almagro for the tenth time without defeat.
"I'm very happy," said Nadal. "This has been an important week for me. To win here again is a great joy after everything I've been through.
"It was a fantastic match for me," he told a crowd which had huddled under umbrellas for the duration of the contest. "Thanks to the people who watched us."
The world number five has made a storming comeback to tennis after missing seven months from last summer with knee injuries. Since his February return, he has played finals in all six events he has entered.
"I've played just six tournaments this year but have been in the finals of all of them," said the satisfied winner, who moves up to second in the season points race behind Novak Djokovic, according to ATP calculations. "I'm in the top 10 and I'm getting my tennis back."
