Andrey Rublev beat Casper Ruud in straight sets to claim the Swedish Open title in Bastad.

Russia's world number seven defeated Norway's Ruud 7-6 (7-3) 6-0 for the 25-year-old's second title of the year.

Elsewhere, Pedro Cachin, 28, won his first career title beating 35-year-old Spaniard Albert Ramos-Vinolas 3-6 6-0 7-5 in the Swiss Open final.

The clay-court events are traditionally played after Wimbledon and before the US hard-court swing begins.

World number four Ruud, 24, won the Bastad title in 2021 but could not repeat that success, beaten by Rublev who has already won a title on clay this season at the Monte Carlo Masters 1000 event.

Argentine Cachin, ranked 90th in the world, will move to a career-high ranking of 49 on Monday with his maiden title win in Gstaad, Switzerland.

Ramos-Vinolas was a break up in the third set but could not capitalise to win what would have been his fifth career title.
