Rafael Nadal won his 12th Barcelona Open title, saving a match point in a thrilling three-set victory over Greece’s Stefanos Tsitsipas.
Nadal trailed 4-2 in the opener but recovered, breaking twice to take it.
World number five Tsitsipas showed great grit in the second set, saving two match points in game 10 game before levelling the match on a tie-break.
In a tight third set, Nadal faced a match point before piling on the pressure to win 6-4 6-7 (6-8) 7-5.
The victory, which took three hours 38 minutes, gave the 34-year-old his 61st clay court title and came against an in-form opponent who had won his maiden Masters crown in Monte Carlo last week.
“Winning the trophy here means a lot,” said Nadal, who had only lost one set in 11 previous finals in the Spanish city.
“His view is that that should be on the backs… of the wealthiest Americans who can afford it and corporations and businesses who can afford it,” said White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki.
The proposal would increase the top marginal income tax rate to 39.6% from 37%, according to the New York Times and Bloomberg.
The move would effectively reverse Donald Trump’s 2017 income tax cut for highest income earners.
The plan would also nearly double taxes on capital gains to 39.6% for people earning more than $1m.
