  • Rafael “The King of Clay” Nadal Wins Record 8th Roland Garros

    Rafael “The King of Clay” Nadal Wins Record 8th Roland Garros

    Rafael Nadal surely is the King of Clay, winning a record 8th French Open today, defeating his compatriot David Ferrer, 6-3, 6-2, 6-3.

    This was Nadal’s 12 Grand Slam title, which moves him into third place for overall wins behind Roger Federer (17) and Pete Sampras (14). By winning Roland Garros eight times, Nadal has now also dominated a Slam more than any other man, passing Sampras and Federer, who have each won Wimbledon 7 times, and besting his own record at the French major.  Additionally, he sets a record by winning at least one Major in nine consecutive years.

    ‘King of Clay’ Wins Epic 5-Setter to Reach the French Open Men’s Final; Ferrer breaks French hearts

    The seven-time champion, Rafael Nadal, beat Novak Djokovic 6-4, 3-6, 6-1, 6-7(3), 9-7 on Friday, in a match which lastest 4:37, securing his place in Sunday’s championship match at Roland Garros.  It was the much-anticipated rematch to last years’ final, and each player had much at stake.  Nadal is vying for his record 8th title at the French, while Djokovic was playing for the chance to be only the 8th player ever to hold a “career Slam.”

    The Spaniard David Ferrer later defeated Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in straight sets, 6-1, 7-6(3), 6-2, eliminating France’s hope of having one of their own in the Roland Garros men’s final.
