Rafael Nadal beats Norwegian Casper Ruud 6-3 6-3 6-0 and wins Roland Garros for the 14th time in his career. With today’s success, the Spaniard reaches 22 Slams won, reaching +2 on his all-time rivals, Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic with 20 wins.
And while it reaches its 14th success on the red clay of France, a race of indiscretions has taken place between social and local media on a possible announcement of withdrawal by the Majorcan.
But the indiscretion was denied by the staff of the Spanish champion, in particular from the head of communication, Benito Perez-Barbadillo, who wrote on his twitter account: “The information that appeared in some media regarding the request for a second press conference by Rafael Nadal is completely false”. The case seems closed for the moment. The 36-year-old Majorcan has also recently repeated “I don’t know if it’s my last Roland Garros”: for years the champion has suffered from Müller-Weiss syndrome, a problem in the bones of his foot that has always caused him a lot of pain .
