Sharapova does likewise and it pays of for her as she goes 2-0 up after saving three break points in the first game

But Williams stayed calm and powered her way back into the match to take the first set 6-4

Sharapova began to feel the pressure and, despite her good start, never really looked like she would defend her crown

In the final game, two aces made it 30-15 for Williams and a beautiful backhand into the corner brought her to match point. Her 10th ace of the match sealed victory

Williams beat Sharapova in straight sets, 6-4 6-4, to add a second French Open title to her already bulging trophy cabinet

French Open Final: Rafael Nadal v David Ferrer
![Page 30: Roland Garros The 2013 French Open: Final](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070605/53e745738d7f72fb7b8b80f6/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
The two competitors, David Ferrer and Rafael Nadal, pose ahead of the final. Nadal has only ever lost one match at Roland Garros and is the overwhelming favourite against his fellow Spaniard. Ferrer is the world No5 but this is his first grand slam final
![Page 31: Roland Garros The 2013 French Open: Final](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070605/53e745738d7f72fb7b8b80f6/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt is in the crowd enjoying himself
![Page 32: Roland Garros The 2013 French Open: Final](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070605/53e745738d7f72fb7b8b80f6/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Nadal sweeps to an early break of serve in the first set
![Page 33: Roland Garros The 2013 French Open: Final](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070605/53e745738d7f72fb7b8b80f6/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
But Ferrer hits back in the very next game as Nadal crashes a shot into the net on break point
![Page 34: Roland Garros The 2013 French Open: Final](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070605/53e745738d7f72fb7b8b80f6/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Now there's an awesome sight; Nadal in full flow. He cleans up the first set, 6-3
![Page 35: Roland Garros The 2013 French Open: Final](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070605/53e745738d7f72fb7b8b80f6/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Ferrer is being given the run around in the second set. He's already 3-0 down and it looks like only the prospect of a rain break could halt Nadal's momentum
![Page 36: Roland Garros The 2013 French Open: Final](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070605/53e745738d7f72fb7b8b80f6/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
He's already 3-0 down and it looks like only the prospect of a rain break could halt Nadal's momentum

Or a protestor ... (this chap made his move at 5-1 in the second set, but was swiftly collared and taken away)
![Page 39: Roland Garros The 2013 French Open: Final](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070605/53e745738d7f72fb7b8b80f6/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Bam! A solid tackle takes him down
![Page 40: Roland Garros The 2013 French Open: Final](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070605/53e745738d7f72fb7b8b80f6/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

Nadal shows his gratitude to the men in black

Nadal wobbles briefly as Ferrer breaks back to 5-2. But the challenger is crushed in ruthless fashion in the next game as Nadal claims the second set 6-2

Rafael Nadal returns a shot to David Ferrer during the French Open final.

The third and, seemingly, final set, is not quite as routine as it could be. Nadal breaks early but again is troubled enough by Ferrer that he soon drops his own service game. It's 3-3 this set ...
![Page 54: Roland Garros The 2013 French Open: Final](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070605/53e745738d7f72fb7b8b80f6/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Ferrer disastrously double faults in game eight to hand Nadal a critical break of serve - now the King of Clay only needs to hold serve to claim the title
![Page 55: Roland Garros The 2013 French Open: Final](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070605/53e745738d7f72fb7b8b80f6/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Game, set and match Nadal (6-3, 6-2, 6-3)

Rafael Nadal celebrates becoming the first man to win eight titles at the same grand slam.
