Rafa Nadal makes his legend bigger in Paris

MADRID, 5 Jun. (EUROPA PRESS) -

Spanish tennis player Rafa Nadal won his fourteenth Roland Garros title this Sunday by beating Norwegian Casper Ruud (6-3, 6-3, 6-0) in the final of the season's second Grand Slam, a wounded player who confirms him as the king of Paris and that strengthens him as the male tennis player with the most 'greats' in history, with 22.

The combination that never fails: Nadal, June and Philippe Chatrier. On the main court of the Parisian tournament, where he has never lost a final, the Spaniard has made history again, this time against one of the most outstanding students of his Academy, who was facing his first Grand Slam final. .

His inexperience took its toll on him against a superlative rival, capable of everything and more in Paris. Neither the degenerative disease in his left foot, which has even threatened to end his career, nor the low expectations of many after his absence due to injury for several weeks have disarmed his idyll with French clay. .

With his fourteenth Musketeers Cup (2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2022), Nadal, who turned 36 this Friday, reaches 22 titles of the 'Grand Slam', and extends his advantage over the Serbian Novak Djokovic (20) and the Swiss Roger Federer (20), whom he already managed to overcome at the beginning of the year by winning the Australian Open.
