Winner of Roland-Garros 14 times, Rafael Nadal has a wealth of great memories in Paris. Interviewed by the tournament's press service, he highlighted the uniqueness of the 2020 edition, marked by Covid-19 and held in October instead of May.
He stated: "The first two sets of the 2020 final were undoubtedly very, very special. It was the year of COVID, we played Roland-Garros later in the season, in colder conditions, against Novak in the final, and I felt slightly less favored.

Yet, I managed to reach the final, and in that final, I was able to raise my level of play exceptionally. So it was truly a special moment."
