Roger Federer won the Swiss Indoors title for the fifth time in six years when he demolished unseeded Kei Nishikori in the final on his home town tournament Sunday. Federer, playing in his 98th ATP final of which he has won 68, triumphed 6-1, 6-3 against the 21-year-old Japanese wild card, who was playing in his third. “He didn't give me a chance, he was too good for me today,” said Nishikori, who beat world No. 1 Novak Djokovic in the semifinal. Federer, who completed his third match without dropping a set following his wins against Andy Roddick and Stanislas Wawrinka, won his second title of the year and his first since Doha in January. Nishikori, meeting his idol Federer for the first time, held his serve in the opening game but the dominant Swiss rattled off the next seven as he totally dominated proceedings against the world No. 32. The Swiss, playing in his first tournament since the US Open in September, hit five aces and no double faults while Nishikori took only six points off Federer's serve. Nishikori put up more resistance in the second set, saving two break points in the second game to at least end Federer's run. However, it was only a matter of time and Federer broke in the sixth game. Granollers claims 2nd title Spain's Marcel Granollers won his second title of the year when he beat Argentina's Juan Monaco 6-2, 4-6, 7-6 (7/3) at the Valencia Open Sunday. It was a third crown for the 34th-ranked Spaniard, who finished runner-up here last year to compatriot David Ferrer, and whose previous titles were on clay at Gstaad this year and Houston in 2008. Both players arrived unseeded in Valencia and had taken some notable scalps on their way to the final which lasted over three hours on the hard courts of the iconic Agora building in Spain's third city. Granollers, 25, beat number three seed Gael Monfils and in-form Argentine Juan Martin Del Potro en route to the final while Monaco saw off three Spaniards – Nicolas Almagro, former world number one Juan Carlos Ferrero and top seed Ferrer. Czechs bag Fed Cup Doubles duo Lucie Hradecka and Kveta Peschke won the deciding point to seal a 3-2 victory for the Czech Republic in the Fed Cup final against Russia in Moscow Sunday. The pair needed four match points to see off Maria Kirilenko and Elena Vesnina 6-4, 6-2 after 1hr 36min in the Olympic Stadium and lift their first Fed Cup title since 1988, when the former Czechoslovakia won the annual women's team competition. Earlier, Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova put the visitors 2-1 ahead after beating two-time Grand Slam winner Svetlana Kuznetsova 4-6, 6-2, 6-3, before Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova took the tie down to the decisive doubles rubber after dismissing Lucie Safarova 6-2, 6-4. On Saturday, Kvitova drew first blood for the Czechs, beating Kirilenko 6-2, 6-2, while Kuznetsova pulled the scores level with a 6-2, 6-3 win over Safarova.
