Spain's Rafael Nadal made history by winning a record 10th French Open title with victory over Stan Wawrinka in the 2017 Roland-Garros Men's final in Paris.Rafael Nadal, 31-year-old, came through 6-2 6-3 6-1 against the Swiss third seed Stan Wawrinka to claim his 15th Grand Slam title.
Nadal was overwhelmingly good from start to finish against Wawrinka in the final, and he becomes the first man or woman in the Open era to have won a Grand Slam tournament 10 times.
Wawrinka, 32-year-old, was beaten in a major final for the first time after winning his first three In his career. Wawrinka's firepower off both forehand and backhand had seen off world number one
Andy Murray in the semi-finals, but he could not dominate Nadal in the same way.
The Spaniard won the title for the loss of just 35 games over the course of seven matches.
What a way to make history both in Tennis and in sport overall. A 15th Grand Slam win, a record
10th French Open title (the first player to achieve that feat in any Grand Slam tournament) and another "La Decima" record after 10 titles in Monte Carlo and 10 titles in Barcelona. Way to go Rafa, he truly is the King of Clay for a reason, I just knew he could do it. Tough luck for Wawrinka, he had a great run too beating Murray in the semis and he didn't play that badly but Nadal had absolutely nothing to lose and was playing perhaps one of his best ever matches. Wish both players all the best for the rest of the season and all
Tennis lovers can't wait for Wimbledon to start.
Really enjoyed these two weeks of Tennis, see you again next year Roland Garros.
They all wrong again, no?He is done. He is finished. He is over. He will never comeback. He is too old. He is too weak. His
should fire his coach.He can't hold a game. He can't win a set. He will never win another master series. He will never win a slam. Nadal was just streets ahead of everyone else in the tournament.
