Rafael Nadal Wins French Open Title
Defeats Novak Djokovic in Four Sets
Nadal Captures 14th French Open Title
Rafael Nadal demonstrated once again why he is the greatest player in French Open history by beating long-time rival Novak Djokovic in four sets.
The Spaniard won 6-2 4-6 6-2 7-6 (4) to claim his 14th title at Roland Garros. Nadal now has 22 Grand Slam titles, two more than Djokovic and Roger Federer.
The match was a rematch of last year's final, which Nadal also won in four sets. Djokovic had won their previous meeting in the Rome Masters final last month, but Nadal was too strong for the Serb on his favorite surface.
Nadal dominated the first set, breaking Djokovic's serve twice. Djokovic hit back in the second set, but Nadal broke his serve again in the third set to take a 2-1 lead.
The fourth set was tight, but Nadal broke Djokovic's serve in the 10th game to seal the victory. Djokovic saved two championship points in the 12th game, but Nadal eventually converted his third championship point to win the match.
Conclusion
Nadal's victory is a testament to his incredible skill and determination. He is the greatest player in French Open history, and one of the greatest players in tennis history.
