Rafael Nadal has beaten Casper Rudd in straight sets to win a record 14th French Open title
Rafael Nadal beat Casper Ruud 6-3, 6-3, 6-0 in the French Open final on Sunday for his 14th championship at Roland Garros and 22nd grand slam title overall, adding to two records he already owned.
The Spaniard’s first triumph in Paris came in 2005 at age 19. No man or woman ever has won the singles trophy at any major event more than his 14 in Paris. And no man has won more grand slam titles than Nadal.
