When did Roger Federer win Roland Garros? Did John McEnroe ever win the French Open? How often did Björn Borg win Roland Garros?
Rafael Nadal has won 14 Roland Garros titles and set a record that might stand forever. The French Open 2022 Final between Rafael Nadal and Casper Ruud could not have been more one-sided: 6:3 6:3 6:0 After a tough five setter against Felix Auger Aliassime Rafael Nadal had to face world no 1 Novak Djokovic in the Quarterfinal. The Serb had defeated Rafa Nadal in the 2021 Roland Garros Semifinal to give the King of Clay only his 3rd loss at the French Open. In 2022 however Nadal proved once more why he is the greatest clay court player of all time and defeated Djokovic in the French Open might session. In the Semifinal Nadal vs Zverev the Spaniard was in the lead before going into a second tie break when Alexander Zverev injured his foot and couldn't continue. This promoted Rafael Nadal to his 14th final at the French Open. As he took the Roland Garros 2022 title he. remains undefeated in Finals there and upped his win loss match record to 112 - 3. An outstanding achievement and a record of most macttch wins at any single Men's Tennis tournament. Roger Federer won 105 matches at Wimbledon but 'only' won 8 titles there. At Roland Garros Federer won the title in 2009 against Robin Soderling to complete his Career Grand Slam just like Andre Agassi did in 1999. On that day Federer equalled Pete Sampras for 14 Grand Slam titles. The most in history at that time. Now Rafael Nadal holds the record for most Grand Slam titles at 22, while Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic both have 20.
THE HISTORY OF ROLAND GARROS
The tournoi de Roland Garros also known as the French Open is one of the 4 Grand Slams of the Tennis season. it is traditionally played on Clay courts and ends the European clay court season before the ATP Tour switches to grass and goes to Wimbledon. The history of the French Open dates back to the 1800s but in 1968 it was the first ever Grand Slam of the Open Era.
The first two editions featured two historical greats battling each other in the final and taking one title each: Ken Rosewall and Rod Laver. Laver completed a calendar year Grand Slam in 1968 by winning the Australian Open, Roland Garros, Wimbledon and the US Open all in the same year.
In the 70s the Swede Bjorn Borg dominated Roland Garros by winning it a record 6 times. Along with his 5 titles at Wimbledon this seemed like an almost unbreakable record.
in 1980s Mats Wilander and Ivan Lendl both won the French Open multiple times, denying the likes of John McEnroe a title.
In 1999 Andre Agassi won the French Open and completed a Career Grand Slam as the first man since Rod Laver in the Open Era. In the early 2000s Guga Kuerten was the man to beat at Roland Garros.
Then in 2005 came Rafael Nadal.

One correction, Rafa lost to Soderling in the Rd16, not QF
Omg, you're right.
What's most annoying about that is that I actually know this but I accidentally wrote QF because I had just typed the same a little earlier. In videos like this there's always some mistake that you only notice when it's too late (I also wrote 2005 - 09 instead of 08 for Rafa's four consecutive wins 😅)
No Rafa lost To Djokovic in 15.
Soderling that was in 09
@@aymericlemartelot978 he's not refering to years but to the round in which Nadal lost to Soderling in 2009. It was the Round of 16 (4th round) and not in the Quarterfinal
Djokovic lost that sane day to Philip kolschreiber 6 4 6 4 6 4 4th round.
@@PAWfessionalTennis Round of 16 in 4 sets.
People don’t understand the actual value of 14 titles man. Its 14 freaking years that he has won this in an individual sport. That’s arguably the greatest achievement in professional sports history. That doesn’t make any sense, it defies logic of consistency, peak, form anything that you can think of. Guy is an alien!!
14 Roland Garros titles (in the same era as Federer and Djokovic) is the greatest achievement in all of sports.
What about AO? That's also insane
@@EricLiu1107 Totally agree! But just goes to show how out of this world the Rafa 14 RG is. It is 5 more than Nole's 9 AO. Can you see Nole winning another 5 AO? Me neither and he is Novak Freaking Djokovic. Federer as great as he was "only" won 8 Wimbledons.
What about 373 weeks at number 1 (for now) in the same era with prime Nadal, prime Federer and prime Murray... That's more than 7 years at the top.
@@nikolaivanovic3163 It is impressive as hell for sure. But in 20 years from now, we might get a very weak ERA and one guy might easily dominate and eventually get more weeks as Number One. So as impressive as it is for being done in this ERA, I don't think of this particular record as an unbreakable record like I see the 14 Roland Garros titles.
@@VelhaGuardaTricolor Yeah, that's true.
Roland garros trophy is called the musketeers trophy, it refers to 4 legendary french players. The unbelievable thing is that these players have 13 single RG titles between all of them and Nadal has 14. No words
The ONLY MAN in this Universe that could break the record 14 Slams in the toughest surface of tennis is RAFAEL NADAL himself...and hopefully it can happen again Next year. Vamos Rafa The GOAT.
How many AO and Wimbledon😒
@@EricLiu1107 AO - 2 , Wimbledon - 2.
Some people always trying to belittle Rafa's 14 RG titles. If 14 RG is an easy achivement then why great players like Federer and Djokovic couldn't win more like Rafa.
@@EricLiu1107 do not make sport more toxic, bro.
I am a fan of Nole and Nole is better than Nadal at playing tennis at all surfaces - I believe that noone argues this now.
BUT it is not good to look down on his achievement on clay, see how good Nole is at all surfaces and this made Nadal's efforts on this surface become admirable to get close to GS count.
@@letrantrung1 excluding clay bro not better on all surfaces
14 Roland Garros is the only record in all sport that I can say it can’t be broken. It’s not possible and Rafa achieved that in an era where he faced Peak Roger and peak Nole, it’s insane isn’t, even if you don’t accept it you guys know deep down, it’s unbelievable
*ombelievable
As RAFa says
The king of tennis. The greatest athlete of all time.
The unintentional hindsight hilarity of "Who can break the record of 6 French Opens!? WHO!?!?"
Breaking Nadal's Roland Garros record is literally impossible. First of all, most pro players don't even last 14 seasons. Even if they do, someone would have to win Roland Garros starting as the youngest champion at 17 years old and win it EVERY SINGLE YEAR until he's 31. Or alternatively win it for the first time at 22 years old and keep winning until he's 36, becoming the oldest Roland Garros champion of all time. Or anything in between those ages, which is equally unfathomable.
sorry. Rafa is not finished yet. He may add one or possibly two more before calling it quits, hopefully. 15 RG!! no one can even dream that :)
@@saravanakumarvelmurugan3554 you're right and also he'll add an unpredicted win at age 40ish to become the oldest player to ever win a major.
@@user-iv1nx5ik5f he may keep winning it every year until hes 40
Can you imagine. The scenes!!
Must been bit lucky that Novak is still immature, which no real competition on Clay.
Spain could win so many titles just because of Rafa 😂! Just love this guy!
can i just say i dont usually watch videos to the end but "me, me, me, me, me" was worth it HAHA
When Bjorg titles were taking almost the whole line above , i was like waiiiiittt waiiittt
That's only 6
How u gonna adjust 14...
Rafa 14slams in one major, will never ever b broken, NO!!. Period....
Vamosssss Rafa...
U R THE EX. OF STRONG MENTALITY CAN CONCUR ANYTHING...🐐
There have been gr8 🎾 🎾 players, but Rafa is simply the greatest of them all!!
I want Rafa to have 3 more slams and stand alone at 25 single titles.
When Samras was flexing 14 slams, i thought it's hard to surpass that
Nadal comes in n : i go 14slams alone in RG.
Unbeilbebal...Vamos rafa the humble 🐐 who never smashed a racket thar gave him everything...respect
The best lullaby I've heard "Me, me, me...me, me, me...me, me, me, me...me, me, me...me". 😅
This 14th RG is the untouchable record. Rafa will be the only one to break this record of his own. This is extraterrestrial record
Nothing in life needs to be certain, but I am extremely confident that Rafael Nadal's Roland Garros record cannot be broken.
VAMOS RAFA!! THE G.O.A.T. ,GREAT CHAMPION ,14 ROLAND GARROS ,THANK YOU RAFA FOREVER . MAGIC!!
Great visuals. Nadal is the greatest in all tenis history!
GOAT of all GOATS💪🐐🎾💯💯🔥🇪🇸🐂🙏
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
Novak Djoković is Goat
@@bogu7288 literally a goat 🐐 🤣
@@bogu7288 No. He is not the best in GS, Nadal is.
the opening of the vid is so hillarious 😂😂😂. Nadal put himself in there.
That 6 hour match at the OA between Djokovic and Nadal, was the highpoint of Tennis. I was stunned:The tenacity, perseverance and sportsmanship. Although Novak won,Tennis won. I honour them for bringing such brilliance to us. Do not run them down, respect both of them
He broke borg's record in 2012. Ten years later he doubles his own record. That's consistency, longevity and above all complete dominance of le chatrier. Unreal. To be fair, clay court tennis was much slower and in a way more physical when Borg was playing and even in the 90s, except 1996
That's true. The difference between surfaces was more extreme in the past which is why Borg's French Open & Wimbledon doubles in 1978, 79 & 80 are considered the most special usually
@@PAWfessionalTennis Absolutely, even now in today's homogenized surfaces only Rafa (2008,2010), Roger (2009) and Novak (2021) accomplished the French Wimbledon double which shows how great Borg was. He reached finals on har tru and hard at the US open but was unlucky. Lost some real tight five setters. When Roger said "Borg is the king", it was no idle remark. But Rafa to his credit won in all possible conditions in 2020, 2022 at the french. He wouldn't have been able to do that earlier in his career but he has improved in all areas of his game so much.
@@z1az285 that just shows borg was in a weak Era ... the big 3 is the golden most thought Era of all times its uncomparable for all time
@@harryp3804 That's 💩, by your logic every era was weak until now. Wrong, it has become easier in this era to win slams across multiple surfaces but even then it's not so easy to win the French and Wimbledon back to back. McEnroe, Lendl, edberg, Becker, Connors, Stich wilander, courier, Sampras , Agassi (career slam though) all tried and all failed. The 90s was an incredibly strong era.
@@z1az285 The primary reason that it's difficult to win Rolland Garros and Wimbledon back-to-back because the 2 grand slams are scheduled weeks apart. Doesn't really speak about the surface difference.
It's the greatest sporting achievement of ALL TIME. That's all. 💖
14 and counting
Excellent video. I paused the video after 2004, took 3 deep breaths, and then watched Nadal going supersonic!!! wonderfully presented. Thanks a lot
That's how it's meant to be watched 😁
Thanks for your comment
How can we imagine this: 14 Roland...it is unreal.
Grande RAFA💯❤💯
Rafa's 14 RG and Bolt's 9.58s WR are probably the most difficult records to beat in any sport.
Someday, somebody, will break Usain's record. Maybe in 20 years, maybe in 50 years...
Never, nobody, will break Rafa's record in RG. Not in this era, clay surface, five set matches.
Nobody will beat Rafa’s record even if Usain Bolt’s record is beaten by some Jamaican itself
Usain Bolt record is gonna be beaten in the next few years, 200m probably by Erriyon Knighton
@@palmaciorodriguez2218 200m maybe, 100m not in a century. 9.58s it's too close to human limits.
Bolt no comparison
I loved the visuals - really brought home the enormity of Rafa’s achievement at RG. That record will stand forever!
There couldn't be a fiercer warrior on the tennis court
Rafa dominance on clay court is almost upto the term undefeatable..
I can only imagine if the USO was played on Clay (like it was during the mid-to-late 1970s)
Nadal, the GOAT by far
Good Luck breaking those records new gens, Spain just loves Roland Garros
the times he lost he was injured as a lame practitioner or with long hospital operations.
And he only has 14, if he didn't have as many injuries as he has, he would have 17 or 18 RG.
This guy is going to be 75 years old and he's going to keep winning this tournament against his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Rafa Nadal 1
The injuries are lame excuses peddled by stupid fans. I love Rafa. He lost to good playing Sodlering in 2009. He lost 2015 QF to Djoko. And Djoko isn't a fluke. He's the only players who defeated Rafa many times on fly. If you talk about injury excuses, someone can point to other players who were injured and stupidly discount Rafa's achievements. At this age, I expect him to play economically.
@@hus390 excuses??
look for Nadal injuries and there you have the history of injuries do not make anything up. It doesn't matter if you like Nadal more, Federer Novak or Alcaraz, but you just have to see Nadal's injury history, he is one of the 3 big ones who suffered the most injuries.
@@hus390 I can take that from any other slam. But with Rafa’s ridiculous record in RG, you have to wonder if something was wrong with him in those particular days. Turned out something was indeed wrong with him in those particular days.
In 2020 Tsonga and other players made public that Rafa was sick in that match he lost to Soderling in 2009. To this date, Rafa has not said a word. But there you have a possible explanation.
2015 was Rafa’s worst year. He didn’t win a single clay court match in the European wing and won only one title in the whole year. Rafa calls that year the mentally injured year. Granted, Djokovic won fair and square, but he didn’t beat the best version of Rafa, because the best version of Rafa is unbeatable there, and considering that Wawrinka won the final, well, you just have to wonder if Djokovic was really the player to beat that year.
And in 2021 is undeniable that Rafa’s foot gave him a lot of problem during that match and the reason why he missed the rest of the 2021 tennis season.
It’s not taking anything away from the other players, it is taking a look at those three particular matches and analyze Rafa’s physical/mental condition those years to confirm if they beat the best version of Rafa. Point is, they didn’t.
@@minyrar7107 you are spot on with your analysis.
I'll talk about his loss to Soderling.
I study Nadal like a book when he plays. It was very obvious that he was handicapped sometime in the third set if my memory is right.
He was moving gingerly around the baseline and was looking very funny, especially when receiving serve.
In fact in that 4th set it was clear he couldn't move freely and was suffering an ailment.
What i found frustrating is that he didn't say anything about an injury during the post match interviews. It's good to be humble and not take the credit from Soderling but i thought it was ridiculous he didn't mention the injury.
For those who doubt he was injured against Soderling, let me bust your bubble. His next match after that loss was an appearance in one of the pre wimbledon tournaments, and in his first match he was still moving gingerly from the first exchanges and retired and pulled out from the first match and skipped Wimbledon.
@@hus390 he withdrew from the tournament even in 2004
been Nadal's fan since his 1st GS title.. all the way to title #22
Superb nadal👍
This is the hardest record in sport to beat ! How can you beat that ? Rafa is the 👑
Clay king maybe, but tennis King belongs to Noleeee
@@EricLiu1107 why you are crying in every comment man Nadal is GOAT to us.why you are talking about jcovic here 😂
Before Nadal, Borg was considered the greatest clay court player, and he won 6 RG!
I mean he retired very early (26) at his prime. One of the biggest "What if?". But as Nadal said, there's no "What if", only facts.
@@arjunwijayaratnam1986 Actually really Borg retired at 25 because he didn't play any more Slams after the 81 US Open!
he was also one of the greatest grass court players too
@@arjunwijayaratnam1986 i'm not sure about what ifs, he himself stated that he retired because he felt that McEnroe from that point on would've been superior to him and he did not want to play as the second best, he might've clinched a couple more maybe, but surely not 8 more :D
@@arjunwijayaratnam1986 To do what Rafa has done, you can't be just good, you need a lot of things more. You need to train very hard, you need to have a very healthy livestile, you need an extraordinaty mind, etc. I can't imagine Borg doing that at 35yo. Any way, assuming Borg could mantain his winrate at RG as Rafa has done, he would be still behind Rafa in titles.
Come rafa the goat go for 23 slams
It should be renamed : The Rafa Invitational
Viva Rafa Nadal, gracias por ser un crack del tenis, Viva España! 🇪🇦
Subscribed because of that final "me" 😂😂
I knew it would work 😁
You can look forward to a similar video probably about Wimbledon 🙂
@@PAWfessionalTennis hope Rafa's name comes 3 times as winner in that video 😉
Best Tribute to 🎾 🐐
Yes, now we know that the statement "it's impossible" to over take Bjorn Borg's six RG titles was just a myth. Now it's truly impossible to over take Rafa's 14 RG titles. Try to beat that. Nadal clearly set the pace
Usually, when you say a record it's impossible to beat, you will be eventually wrong but, when you see that, besides Rafa, nobody has ever won more than 10 times at any ATP tournament, maybe this is one of the few times you won't be actually wrong saying that.
@@tomeullabres5288 he actually won other atp titles on clay more than 10 times like 2 or 3
@@sriramanajni3977 Obviously, nobody meant nobody besides Rafa. He owns the top3 in same tournament titles. 14 RG, 12 Conde de Godó (Barcelona) and 11 Montecarlo Masters. He also have 10 titles in Rome but that doesn't count at "more than 10 titles". Federer is the only other one who has reached 10 titles in the same tournament (Halle).

superbe vidéo et superb schéma qui reflète clairement la carrière extraordinaire de RAFA
My deepest gratitude to the video uploader for making such a nice presentation. The music played when Rafa's triumph comes is awesome, simply loved it. Most Rafa fans - including myself - believe in humble and kindness - the quality endorsed by none other than Rafa. It is not about showing someone lesser in quality but uplifting ourselves, respect our opponents and do the right things in life. Results may come late but it will. Bravo Rafa. We love you and are lucky to see you in our lifetime. May you clinch a couple of more Roland Garros titles. Regards
A complete champion in n out of d tennis court. Ah idol for d forthcoming youngsters of tennis.. Hell b d bar to equal but cannot touch. That can come close but can't touch. Everytime he plays he rise up from d dead. D 2019 Australian open against Medvedev. One point away. Car has nine lives, Nadal has 18 lives.
Just imagine if he had not hampered by injury how much grand slam he would have collected
But the thing is it was inevitable because of his HEAVY PLAY STYLE. He was bound to get injured frequently. It's mind-blowing that he has lasted this long inspite of that.
@@balerion77 not his play style
His foot
He was told to retire at 18 by doctors
And also knee injury (same which Cristiano Ronaldo had) and wrist injury
@@tejasbhat4477 I know that, but many of other injuries in his were a result of HIS PHYSICALLY GRUELLING PLAY STYLE. All I'm saying is Its his Play style that WON him all those Grandslams but also it's side effects were INJURIES.
He always gets tired and exhausted in Wimbledon since 2012 to 2017.
And Grass became his least favorite slam after loss to Lukas Rosol bro
He started showing interest in 2018,2019,2022 but his age and injuries are stopping him from it
He tried to win 3rd Wimbledon title in 2011,2012,2018,2019,2022 but he lost to Djokovic and Federer in finals and semifinals
Just 2 weeks between French open and Wimbledon is so strange mostly
3rd Wimbledon title>2nd Wimbledon
He would be tied with John McEnroe and Boris Becker in Wimbledon titles
But he is Tied with Jimmy Connors,
Stephan Edberg in the end actually
Having 3rd Wimbledon title it gives you lot of happiness. He should have tried to win Wimbledon title if he trained a lot like he trained on Clay when he was in his prime time bro
Andy Murray is better grass court player than Rafael Nadal that is a fact. He won more titles on grass then Rafael Nadal actually
Rafael Nadal plays worst in first 3 rounds then he plays best in other rounds
His Rivals have 8 and 7 Wimbledon titles and he have just 2 Wimbledon titles it is not fair at all. He should have tried to win it in his prime time make his knees strong enough to handle the pressure actually.
3 Wimbledon titles will always be better than 2 Wimbledon titles only
Si Rafa llega sano a Roland Garros es el favorito al título, pero si llega sano y con buenos resultados previo a RG el título es suyo antes de empezar el torneo.Nadie domino nunca un GS como Rafa lo hizo en Roland Garros.
Nadal Absoluto King , Rei , imperador !!!
This is one of the best videos on CZcams. Beautifully conceived and delivered, great use of graphics, music and compelling drama. Fantastic! 👏👏👏👏🔥🔥
Thank you so much. Your comment and the fact that the video is blowing up (compared to my other videos so far) is making my day
In 2032 he will win the RG final against the son of Steffi Graff and André Agassi.
In 2042 there will be no humans on earth. But Rafa Nadal will win the title against a Terminator Cyberdyne Systems Series 3000 (T-3000).
In 2052, Rafa will defeat Thanos, who will suffer a heart attack in the 5th set.
You have a new subscriber! LOVED IT! Loved, Loved, Loved IT! Looking at the past champions was a great throwback. The graphics used really underscored the point made. Nadal Is The KING!
Great! Glad you loved it. I have similar videos about the Masters 1000 tournaments and will make new videos about the other Slams too
Have a nice day!
WONDERFUL！！！VAMOS RAFA！！！MARCH TO 20 EVEN 25 RGS！！！
BTW,ROD LAVER WAS WON ALL-CALENDAR GRAND SLAMS IN 1969,NOT 1968.
FROM CHIRAC,SARKOZY,HOLLANDE UNTIL MACRON RIGHT NOW,FOR ALMOST 20 YEARS,RAFA IS STILL THE GOD OF ROLAND GARROS！！！
I feel 😪 😕 Tsitsipas really threw the final in 3rs set. Djokovic and Nadal are players who have played high pressure games throughout their careers. Each match of these two titans have gone the distance. So to give a opening to these two is like facing a raging bull. These two have incredible record while playing 5 setters. Infant there are matches where they have recovered from 2 sets down to winning next 3 rounds and winning the slams easily
The greatest record in sport history that will never be broken
Gracias 🤗🎾🎉 & Gracias Rafa 🙏❤️👑🇪🇦🏆🎾🎉👏
Thank you for taking the time to make this great presentation.
If Rafa did not lose to Soderling, he might have retired in 2014 after getting his 10th straight RG trophy. Just Joking, Hehehe!!! RAFA is the GREATEST!
To Soldering's credit!! He backed up that victory over Rafa by going to back to back French Open finals & was definitely a top 5 player who waa factor in the big tournaments. It's unfortunate that he would retire early because of mono.
Well, the last part is quite ridiculous, because those 20 titles for Spain have been won by Rafa (14), yes, but also by Bruguera (2), Gimeno (1), Moyà (1), Costa (1) and Ferrero (1). Not only the country with more titles but also with the more different winners, a total of six, being the next the US with just three.
Great video!
This is very informative. Gracias!
14 RG who can beat that male or female , thats insane
Great job. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

@@vasudevkarthik4593 oh, I'm usually careful with predictions. I don't like when people immediately predict 10+ Slams for a player.

If Nadal wins one last Roland Garros title in 2024, he will have 15, which would be the same as Borg (6), Lendl (3), Wilander (3) and Kuerten (3) combined.
A record for all the eternity.
⌛
Amazing. Incredible.
Nadal' s 14 RG titles, Federer' s 237 consecutive weeks as no.1 will never ( probably) be broken.Since I am a Djokovic fan, I have to mention that Djokovic won an AO TITLE (10X) TEN TIMES when he reached QF, he NEVER LOST in an AO SF or F.My personal favorite ND record is the fact that he won SIX (6) China Open titles, NEVER lost a match.
Well done making this video!! Epic. Music was awesome.
Thank you!
Awesome video!!
Thank you
Omg that music when Nadal is winning: epic ! And saying that "me, me, meeee" XD From which interview is that?
It's a very recent one. Before this year's Roland Garros they had a Quiz with a few players, asking them to remember the French Open Champions of the last 20 years
No matter how we fantasize over a record, the truth of the matter is;
Records are meant to be broken. Period
Most tennis players don't even last 14 seasons. An average pro tennis career lasts about 10 years. The average age of retirement is actually 27. Very few players get past 33 years old. In order to beat Nadal's record someone should play at least 14 seasons and win Roland Garros every year from when he's 20 to when he's 34.
GOAT OF ALL GOATS🙏💪🐐🎾💯💯🔥🔥🇪🇸🐂✊
Good video
Thank you!
I have a feeling Carlos might win Wimbledon starting this 2022 because he is pretty fast, great balance, hard hitting, slice a lot and master of drop shots
Alcaraz won't play Wimbledon because of injury!!
@@wilnerolivier7971 you are crazy... he isnot playng in some tournaments so he can play on grass..
I think we are good to change Philippe Chatrier to Rafael Nadal now. As the WTF player said recently, the named one would be happy to see the change.
nice video, and you will be able to reuse most of it when Nadal wins the 15th Roland Garros
I wouldn't complain 😄
"why do i hear boss music?"
Mr Nadal is in his own league. I can't even read the names of people having one title
Ending ❤️
2020 RG when Rafa won, he tied Federer’s record of 20 GS.. you forgot to mention that.
Rafa is special : 2013 GS 13th
2014 14th
2019 19th
2020 20th
2022 22nd
I hope he gets 23rd and 24th in 2022 !! !!!
very good vamosssssssssssssssssssssss
Everybody says that Nadal breaks Borg's record. it's true - for men's tennis. If we are considering record in general, then Borg does not even have the record. Before Nadal, the previous record for open era most French Open belongs to Cris Evart with 7 titles, which Nadal broke. Woh! she was a wonderful player and Nadal exactly has double of her tally now. That makes him not the King of clay but time has come to announce him THE GOD OF CLAY.
Men's tennis and women's tennis are not the same sports. If Evert had played men's RG, she could not win a single match.
Nadal is not the king of clay, its the king of tennis. Djokovic has 8 GS outsside HC, the same than Rafa outside Clay. Should we call Novak the king of Hard court?
gods donot need to use steroids to win,,, narcisstic cheaters do. his injury pronenesss is a direct result of sterods..let us hope that alcaraz does notfollow nadals steroid abuse
@@exalted1966 How easy is to talk crap. You have a lot of growing up to do buddy. I am sorry that your mu and dad couldnt or didnt want to provide you with an education. Reading and travelling may help you. Good luck
Super duper
The most impressive stat is that Rafa and Nole made the same number of QF
Yes, Djokovic is very consistent at RG.
Like in Rome where he reached as many Finals as Rafa, and more than at any other Masters 1000
Likewise, Rafa also 'only' has 2 Australian Open titles but reached the QF there 14 times, almost as often as in RG
Este récord de Rafa Nadal si que será casi imposible de batir. Son 14 años ganando el torneo, a día de hoy no veo ningún tenista que este capacitado para esta hazaña
Rafa's 14 RG
Phelp's 23 Gold
Messi's 7 Ballon D'ors
are basically unbreakable
Rafael is indeed the most dominant player in the history of sports.
1981: Quem poderá quebrar esse recorde? Quem? É impossível!
Hoje sabemos que não foi impossível, más o novo recorde de Nadal parece muito mais impossível de quebrar, não è?
Nunca se sabe, más talvez ahora a pregunta seja quem pode ser a segunda pessoa a ganar mais de Borg
@@PAWfessionalTennis é verdade! Meus parabéns pelo vídeo, ver toda a história e a felicidade dos campeões ajuda a entender a magnitude do que Nadal conseguiu
Me me me me me 😂😂😂😂😂
