Top seed Juan Martin del Potro retained his title here at the Estoril Open on Sunday after inflicting a 6-4, 6-2 defeat on second seed Richard Gasquet.
The Argentine world number 12 became the third man in the tournament's history to win the clay title in successive years, following in the footsteps of Thomas Muster (1995-1996) and Albert Montanes (2009-2010).
It was also Del Potro's second title of the season after his victory in Marseille in February, and his 11th of a career which includes a US Open success in 2009.
The final was played in sunny conditions after wind and rain affected the early days of the event at the Estadio Nacional.
