15 years of Nadal at Roland Garros

2013: Battle with Nole and review of Ferrer

The eighth will be remembered for an inhuman battle against Djokovic in the semifinals. After 4h: 37, he finished 6-4, 3-6, 6-1, 6-7 and 9-7. “I enjoy suffering,” he said. In the final, he destroyed the great David Ferrer 6-3, 6-2 and 6-3. In 2012 he had spent seven months KO and knew how to get up to succeed again in Paris. “Nadal is the best”, acknowledged Ferrer at the end of another Spanish party at Roland Garros, such as those that Bruguera had before against Berasategui (1994), Moyá against Corretja (1998) and Costa against Ferrero (2002).
