David Ferrer has said that he was relieved after his seven-match losing streak in finals came to an end on Sunday.

The world number five won his first ATP Tour event in 12 months when he beat second seed Fabio Fognini 6-4 6-3 to pick up his third Copa Claro title in Buenos Aires.

"The key was I played consistent all the match, very solid, and in important moments I played better than Fabio," Ferrer told reporters. "I'm happy for my new title.

"The last seven finals I lost, and this time I can change my luck so I'm happy for that. I try to always do my best and finally I can win again another title."

Ferrer has now won a total of 21 Tour titles during his career.
