Corona’s time also made tennis history. Nadal broke Roger Federer’s record by defeating Djokovic in straight sets in the men’s singles final at the French Open. He now holds the world record of winning 20 Grand Slams.

After the US Open, the French Open is also a field without spectators. But the interest was not less. Especially with the men’s final on Sunday. Many sat in front of the television with great interest. Waiting for the big game. Two days later, the two stars Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal met again. Many are betting on Djokovic as a favorite in today’s game. In fact, Djokovic is the number one star in the world right now. He had a good chance of reaching the final if he didn’t inadvertently hit the girl on the line with the ball at the recent US Open. Nadal, for his part, was off the pitch for a long time. In general, everyone thought that there would be an opportunity to watch the game.

But it didn’t really happen. Djokovic could barely face Nadal that day. Nadal practically beat Djokovic 6-0, 6-2, 6-5. He won his thirteenth French Open title and his twentieth Grand Slam title. So far, only Roger Federer holds the record of winning 20 Grand Slams in tennis history. He will not participate in any tournaments this year. He was unable to go to the court after recovering from his knee injury. Federer congratulated Nadal on receiving the award that day. Federer says Nadal can still go a long way. His career does not end now. It will hit even bigger milestones on the record. Federer also said that he will recover quickly and return to the court. The fight will be the same.
