Still, Nadal is 100-2 at Roland Garros and simply won’t be easily beaten, if at all.
Novak Djokovic is 12-2 this season and won the 2021 Australian Open in January. Djokovic was beaten in Monte Carlo by Englishman Daniel Evans and lost in Belgrade against Russian Aslan Karatsev. The Serbian is 74-15 at Roland Garros all-time. Djokovic lost against Nadal in straight sets in last year’s French Open finals.
Dominic Thiem came up short against Nadal in the French Open finals in consecutive years (2018, 2019) and lost in last year’s quarterfinals. Thiem enters Roland Garros with an uninspiring 8-5 mark, but did manage to reach the semifinals in Madrid. Blossoming Greek star Stefanos Tsitsipas is 27-7 on the year with one title at Monte Carlo.

Rising Russian Andrey Rublev is 27-7 this season with one title in Rotterdam. The 23-year-old also reached the finals in Monte Carlo and the semis in Miami and Dubai. Russian, Daniil Medvedev is 18-4 this year with one title in Marseille. The often petulant big man has four first round exits in four career French Open appearances. The legendary Roger Federer will make his first appearance at Roland Garros since reaching the semis in 2019. Federer claimed the 2009 French Open after Robin Soderling stunned Nadal in the semis that year. Fed also has four appearances in the finals.
Late-blooming Russian Aslan Karatsev is 19-6 on the year with one title in Dubai. In what has been a massive breakout campaign, the 27-year-old has recorded wins this year over highly ranked counterparts like Djokovic, Rublev, Jannik Sinner and Diego Schwartzman among others.

Analysis: The 25-year-old Italian Matteo Berrettini is 16-4 on the year and beat Karatsev in the finals with a title at Belgrade where he beat Karatsev in the final. Roberto Bautista-Agut and Pablo Carreno Busta could pull off more than one upset against an elite player.
