Year 2050: Rafa Nadal wins his 38th Roland Garros title and Medvedev thinks this

Rafa Nadal's victory at Roland Garros, where he won his thirteenth title and his 20th Grand Slam To match Roger Federer's mark has been one of the great moments of the tennis season in this atypical 2020.

During the tournament and after winning the title, various media and social networks echoed Nadal's dominance over the clay of Paris, comparing him to a statue, recovering the words of Nico Almagro in 2008 or making photographic montages about Nadal stating that 30 or 40 years would pass and he would continue winning in Paris.

This Wednesday The Twitter account 'We Are Tennis (@WeAreTennis) published a nice video with the message “Rafa Nadal after winning his 38th Roland Garros title in 2050” along with a video in which Nadal appears characterized as if he were 64 years old in a montage about some of his statements after winning the title in Paris.

The video went viral and another of the great rackets of the circuit, Russian Daniil Medvedev, wanted to give his particular point of view on the video and his relationship with the tournament Parisian, where Medvedev has not achieved good results. “Maybe by 2050 I can win in the first round of Roland Garros”the Muscovite player wrote jokingly.

And it is that the Russian, who fell in the final of the US Open 2019 with Nadal and who this year has been proclaimed champion of the ATP Finals (he defeated Nadal in the semifinals), the Parisian tournament resists him, since in his four appearances in Paris he has lost in the first round against Benjamin Boniz (2017), Lucas Pouille (2018), Pierre-Hugues Herbert (2019) and Marton Fucsovics (2020), in what was their most surprising defeat in Paris. Medvedev hopes to make it up in 2021 … before Nadal continues to win Roland Garros in 2050.
