The Spanish athlete has once again confirmed that he is the “ground king” of modern tennis.
Rafael Nadal was confident of winning Roland Garros 2022. In the end, the experienced Spanish tennis player left no chance for Norwegian Kasper Ruud, who beat his opponent in three sets – 6: 3 , 6: 3, 6: 0.
Opponents spent 2 hours and 20 minutes on the court. The Spaniard once filed, committed three double faults and converted eight of 16 breakpoints. The Norwegian tennis player did not serve aces, committed a double fault and converted two of the three breakpoints shown.
Thus, Nadal became the Roland Garros winner for the 14th time and won the 22nd Grand Slam title. Both of these numbers are records for men’s tennis.
In addition, the 36-year-old Spaniard became the oldest champion of the French Open, updating on the success of his compatriot Andres Gimeno, who won this tournament 50 years ago in 34 years and 10 moon.
