The King of Clay in Paris

Rafael Nadal won his first French Open in 2005, on his debut, at 19. He went on to win 14 titles at Roland Garros, a record at any Grand Slam, with a 112-4 win-loss record on its red clay. His heavy topspin forehand and relentless defense made him almost unbeatable there.

His rare losses came against Robin Söderling in 2009, Novak Djokovic in 2015 and 2021 and Alexander Zverev in the first round in 2024, his final match at the event. In 2022 he won his 14th title despite a chronic foot injury, using numbing injections.

In 2021 Roland Garros unveiled a steel statue of Nadal. The men's champion lifts the Coupe des Mousquetaires, named after French tennis legends, on Court Philippe-Chatrier, a trophy Nadal raised more than anyone.
