Rafal Nadal wins French Open for 14th time

Spain’s Rafael Nadal beat Norwegian Casper Ruud 6-3 6-3 6-0 to win a record-extending 14th French Open title on Sunday.

At 36, Nadal became the oldest man to win the French Open title when he defeated Ruud, the Norwegian whose clay court talents he has personally helped foster.

The Spaniard’s victory delivered a record-extending 22nd major and 14th French Open, 17 years after his title winning debut in Paris.

Nadal is now two Slams ahead of old rivals Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer.

His record at the French Open now stands at 112 wins and just three losses.
