Rafael Nadal Beats Novak Djokovic In French Open Quarterfinals

Xvdfsabyydpjrm

In a match that Rafael Nadal warned could be his last at Roland Garros, he sent his old rival Novak Djokovic to the semifinals, scoring two wins in the match and breaking his 14th Roland Garros title record. .

Nadal, who turns 36 on Friday, defeated the Serbian leaders 6-2, 4-6, 6-2, 7-6 (4) in the evening match that ended after 01:00 in Paris. In Friday's semifinals, he will face third tribe Alexander Zverev, who defeated 19-year-old Nadal compatriot Carlos Alcaraz 6-4, 6-4, 4-6, 7-6 (seventh).

Winner Nadal-Zverev is likely to be the favorite for Sunday's final, as the first two places lost in the second round of the last 16.

After Alcaraz's departure, it became clear that winner Nadal-Djokovic would be the strong favorite for the title. Nadal cut their lead in the rivalry - the highest score in the history of open-air men's tennis - to 30-29 for Djokovic to win.

Despite winning the Australian Open in January in the absence of Djokovic, Nadal entered the tournament as the weakest behind Djokovic and Alcaraz.

The foot injury that first plagued him in 2005 when he won his first Open French title at the age of 19 became a serious problem and hampered his preparations for Roland Garros. He failed to win a clay court tour before coming to Paris for the first time in his career (not counting the 2020 hit with COVID).

Nadal also took five sets, four hours and 21 minutes to win his previous game Sunday, a fourth-round draw against Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime. Djokovic, meanwhile, was in the spotlight on Tuesday - conditions less favorable for Nadal than that day - as he was unbeaten in his first four games.

But Nadal went on to aim to increase his record to 22nd place in singles. At the age of 20, Djokovic equalized with Roger Federer. If Nadal wins the Musketeers Cup again on Sunday, then Djokovic, 35, who is level on points with Nadal and Federer after Wimbledon last year, will not be able to take over until 2023.

In an inspiring and somewhat interesting interview for the August issue of GQ, Brad Pitt called his work "the last semester or quarter." “This is the last semester or quarter. What will this chapter look like? And how do I plan? Pete, 58, has long been thinking about his career, calling it Flag's Plan B. Three "Oscars" for the best film of the last 20 years. So it means something when Pete told GK that the conversation about the upcoming film about women is "as deep as it's been for decades." Directed by Sarah Paul and released December 2, a group of Mennonite women follows Miriam Toussaint's novel about the sexual abuse of men in the colony. Like Pete Plan C, repeat colleague Quentin Tarantino told GQ he saw several examples. "He's one of the last stars of the big screen," he said, comparing Pitt to Paul Newman, Robert Redford and Steve McQueen. "This is true. And frankly, I don't think you can describe it exactly
