Rafael Nadal has won Roland Garros for a 13th time, equaling Roger Federer's record for the most Grand Slam men's singles titles, after crushing his other great rival, Novak Djokovic, 6-0, 6-2, 7-5. We discuss whether Nadal's incredible level surprised Djokovic, the astute tactical performance that Nadal put in, Djokovic's persistent use of the drop shot, what Nadal's relatively understated celebration revealed about him, whether this is Nadal's greatest ever victory at Roland Garros, and where this result leaves the Grand Slam race.
The Tennis Podcast is presented by Catherine Whitaker and David Law, and features Matt Roberts.
KICKSTARTER: SUPPORT THE TENNIS PODCAST
We hope you’ve enjoyed all of our Grand Slam daily shows throughout 2020. We will be launching another Kickstarter in December, with the funds going towards giving Matt a job, buying recording equipment, travel and accommodation expenses, editors, production managers, designers, and the time that goes into it. If you enjoy the podcast and want to help to keep it going and growing, whilst also being first in the queue for our various Kickstarter awards categories, including pet mascots and predictions competitions, you can sign up for our December 1st launch reminder email, here - http://eepurl.com/gwWILX.
