Spain's 6th seeded Fernando Vicente won Casablanca's title at a 350,000 dollars ATP tennis tournament, defeating France's Sebastien Grosjean 6-4, 4-6, 7-6 on Casablanca's court, Sunday. 

Vicente appeared in the 1st set in a better shape than Grosjean, controlling the court and dominating the set 6-4. 

But that was not all for Grosjean to show, as he recovered some of his talent to grab the 2nd set for 6-4. 

The French took the lead in the 3rd set, but could not keep it up. After the score was 3-0 in his favor, Vicente battled back fiercely to end the game set for 7-6, and go home with the precious title - (Several Sources)
