Rafa Nadal será uno de los grandes protagonistas del deporte este viernes en su partido de semifinales de Roland Garros ante Alexander Zverev en busca de una plaza de la gran final del domingo, donde en caso de pasar luchará por conseguir su decimocuarto título sobre la arcilla de París.
Se escapó el derbi nacional en semifinales, pero España tendrá su representante en ellas. Carlos Alcaraz no pudo con un Alexander Zverev excelso, pero Rafa Nadal, sublime, sí superó a Novak Djokovic en su 59º pulso. Otra victoria para la historia y otras semifinales para el balear, que persigue su 14ª Copa de los Mosqueteros. El jugador alemán, 3º del mundo, su último obstáculo antes de la final.
Wimbledon champion Andy Murray is hoping to draw inspiration from the age-defying feats of Rafael Nadal and Marin Cilic at the French Open as he seeks to build momentum ahead of the grasscourt major this month. The 35-year-old, who skipped Roland Garros to preserve his fitness and prepare for Wimbledon, overcame Dutchman Gijs Brouwer 7-6(4), 7-6(3) to advance to the quarter-finals of the Surbiton Trophy Challenger event on Thursday. Murray said he had one eye on events in Paris, where Nadal and Cilic will be in semi-final action later on Friday.
Coco Gauff, 18, the youngest finalist at Roland Garros in two decades, whose striking sensibleness puts her sunshine smile to shade, will take on the rampaging world No.1 Iga Swiatek for the Coupe Suzanne Lenglen. Swiatek, 21, extended her winning streak to 34 matches in stopping the charge of Daria Kasatkina 6-2, 6-1 in the semifinals, the result leaving her one short of Venus Williams' 21st century record for successive wins. Gauff, who had 14 winners in her 98-minute 6-3, 6-1last-four win over Italian Martina Trevisan, however, struck her firmest blow on Court Philippe Chatrier during her on-court interaction, reminding fans yet again that she was more than a tennis sensation.
Iga Swiatek will meet Coco Gauff in a fresh-faced women’s singles final at Roland Garros.
Rafael Nadal and Roland Garros.
