Nadal confesses which was his favorite Roland Garros final: "I had the feeling that I was less favorite"
The king of clay, Rafael Nadal, talked about the tournament he won 14 times, his kingdom Roland Garros. But this time, the Mallorcan got wet and confessed which of his fourteen finals was his favorite: "Possibly, the first two sets of the 2020 final were very special. It was the year it was played in autumn due to the Covid pandemic, and those cold conditions favored Djokovic. I had the feeling that year I was less favored. But in that final, I managed to raise my level in a special way," he said in statements to the Parisian tournament. In that final, Nadal was a storm and overwhelmed Novak Djokovic with a score of 6-0, 6-2, 7-5.
