Novak Djokovic defeated Rafael Nadal 6-2, 6-2 Sunday to win his sixth China Open title and improve his record at the tournament to a sterling 29-0.<br />Djokovic had seven aces to none for his Spanish rival, and saved both break points he faced in the match, which was the 45th between the two players.<br />"The scoreline, especially in the first set, doesn't indicate the real battle that we had on the court," Djokovic said.<br />"I think I maintained that level of aggressivity and strength and power in my shots, and eventually I knew that he's going to make mistakes and he's going to give me shorter balls so I can dominate the rallies, which happened."<br />Nadal said he's pleased with his performance this week, especially considering how much he's struggled to maintain his consistency this season - his first in 11 years without a Grand Slam title.<br />He's also just 2-8 against top-10 opponents this year.
