Juan Ignacio Chela completed a perfect week at the BCR Open in Bucharest by adding the singles title to his doubles win.
The fourth-seeded Argentinian dug deep to take a hard-fought opening set against Spain's Pablo Andujar before easing clear in the second to post a 7-5 6-1 triumph in 88 minutes.
The victory marks the world number 53's second title of the year and sixth of his career, and comes just a day after the 31-year-old won the doubles crown alongside Lukasz Kubot.
"It was an unbelievable week winning in both singles and doubles. I didn't expect that," Chela said.
Chela did not have it all his own way against world number 105 Andujar, who was making his first appearance in an ATP final.
The 24-year-old Spaniard forced two breaks of Chela's serve in the opener but was broken on three occasions himself as the greater experience of his opponent told.
Two further breaks of the Andujar serve were sufficient for Chela to take the second set and the match at a canter.
