Victory over Novak Djokovic in the quarterfinals helps Rafael Nadal took a big step forward on the journey to conquer the 14th Roland Garros championship as well as the 22nd Grand Slam title.

Will Zverev surprise Nadal?

Struggling with injuries before the tournament, not to mention falling into the “death” bracket, but the 35-year-old tennis player was still able to overcome all challenges. Way Nadal beat Aliassime (round 4), Djokovic (quarter-final) in 4 sets lasting nearly 5 hours, proving why he is called the “clay king”.

Roland Garros 2022 witnessed countless surprises when a series of top candidates such as Medvedev, Tsitsipas, Alcaraz, Djokovic soon stopped. Of the four players participating in the semi-finals, Nadal is the only one who has ever won, so “Gaur” completely surpasses his opponents in terms of class, experience and achievements.

However, Nadal has reason to worry about the encounter with Alexander Zverev in the context of the German tennis player showing extremely impressive form. He excellently defeated Carlos Alcaraz, Nadal’s most formidable opponent on clay to reach the second consecutive semi-final of Roland Garros.

Statistics show that Nadal won 6/9 matches against Zverev, but 3 victories of the German player came in the last 4 encounters, including the quarterfinals of the Madrid Open 2022. Experiencing a tense battle with Djokovic, can “Gaur” be able to maintain physical and mental strength to sow Zverev’s grief?
