After not being able to play at the Australian Open, Djokovic has returned to the ATP Tour with full force, claiming his first title of the year in Rome and showing his best game in Paris. The Serbian is coming to this match after destroying Argentinian Diego Schwartzman in three sets (6-1, 6-3, 6-3) and he’s looking to win a second-consecutive Roland Garros, his 21st Grand Slam, and defeat Nadal for a third time in this tournament.
Meanwhile, Nadal is pursuing his 14th Roland Garros and his 22nd Grand Slam. However, while the Spaniard is regarded as the “king of clay”, it’s the first time he is playing in Paris without a previous title on the surface. Either way, he’s coming with confidence after defeating Felix Auger-Aliassime in the last round.
