Rafael Nadal just won his record 10th French Open title steamrolling Stan Wawrinka in the final. No other men’s player has won more than 7 Grand Slams at a single event.

Nadal went through the entire tournament without dropping a set and lost only 35 games, the second lowest in the Open era with matches being best 3 out of 5. 

Rafael Nadal won his 10th French Open title and 15th Grand Slam, moving him to within 3 Grand Slam titles of Roger Federer’s record of 18.

 

Nadal has said that he played lots of ping-pong when he was younger and plays in player’s lounges of tour tennis tournaments where they have tables.
