French Open final LIVE: Rafael Nadal 2-0 up vs Casper Ruud in search for 14th title

Rafael Nadal can extend his lead as the most decorated Grand Slam player in men's tennis on Sunday afternoon but faces a tough challenge against first-time major finalist Casper Ruud in the French Open final. The Spaniard is a perennial champion at Roland Garros, winning 13 of his majors on the clay surface.

The 23-year-old Ruud will be a tricky opponent, though. The Norwegian has navigated tests against Marin Cilic, Hubert Hurkacz, Lorenzo Sonego, Emil Ruusuvuori and Jo-Wilfred Tsonga to reach the last-two.

Nadal will naturally be the huge favourite and is chasing a 22nd Grand Slam. A victory on Court Philippe-Chatrier would put him two ahead of rivals Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic.
