Roland Garros 2022: Semifinals

The Roland Garros 2022 is nearing its end and on Friday, June 3, the two semifinal matches of the tennis tournament will take place. Rafael Nadal achieved his 29th victory against Novak Djokovic with scores of 6-2, 4-6, 6-2, and 7-6 (7/4) in a match that lasted 4 hours and 12 minutes.

With this win, the Spanish tennis player is two games away from conquering his 22nd Grand Slam title. However, Rafa will first have to face Alexander Zverev, the number 3 in the world, who also played a great match against Carlos Alcaraz, one of the favorites to reach the final of the French Open.

The German has not yet won any of the four major competitions and has never reached a final, but he has been very close. This will be the second time he plays a Roland Garros semifinal since he lost in the semis to Stefanos Tsitsipas in 2021. Meanwhile, he hasn't played against Rafa since the Rome Masters last year.
