Novak Djokovic set up a quarter-final meeting with old rival Rafael Nadal at the French Open with an impressive straight-sets victory over Diego Schwartzman on Sunday. The reigning champion, bidding to equal Nadal's men's record of 21 Grand Slam titles, eased to a 6-1, 6-3, 6-3 victory in his last-16 tie against 15th seed Schwartzman. Nadal, the 13-time champion at Roland Garros, defeated Felix Auger-Aliassime in a five-set fourth round epic. He triumphed over the Canadian 3-6, 6-3, 6-2, 3-6, 6-3 in a match which lasted four hours and 21 minutes. "I have a lot of respect for him (Schwartzman). He's a good person off the court," said Djokovic. "He's a clay specialist... But I played well and held my serve."

Sloane Stephens reached the quarter-finals at Roland Garros for the third time on Sunday by thrashing Switzerland's Jil Teichmann 6-2, 6-0 in the last 16. Former US Open champion Stephens, who lost the 2018 French Open final to Simona Halep, will next face fellow American Coco Gauff on Tuesday.
Solo me entrené con él una vez, pero vi partidos suyos, así que sé que va a ser un partido difícil. Pero al mismo tiempo es un rival duro y me gustan esos partidos
Como el Real Madrid, que el sábado sin jugar mejor que el Liverpool, hizo de Curtois y prevaleció ante por el peso histórico de su figura, por ese intangible que le hace superar a sus rivales a pesar de no controlar el partido la mayor parte del tiempo, algo que sucede en contadas ocasiones. El balear mantiene a sus casi 36 años un aura que deslumbra a la mayoría de los rivales que se enfrentan a él, hagan lo que hagan. Por eso, entre otras muchas cosas, ha ganado 109 partidos y perdido sólo tres en Roland Garros. Y así pudo este domingo con el canadiense de 21 y 9º del mundo en el tercer partido resuelto en cinco sets que ha tenido que disputar en sus 18 participaciones en el torneo francés: 3-6, 6-3, 6-2, 2-6 y 6-3 en cuatro horas y 21 minutos.
