"For me every tournament is very important," said Davydenko. "This is my 14th tournament win and it will give me a lot of confidence for the upcoming weeks."
Robredo was looking for his first title since last October.
"I think I was closer than the result says," Robredo said. "Nikolay was playing very well during the whole match. He's a great player, he always hits the ball hard. It's tough when you don't take advantage of your chances. In the second set I had advantage six times, but I couldn't make it."
Robredo, a former Top 10er, dropped to 14-52 lifetime against Top 10 players.
