Rafael Nadal meets Novak Djokovic in French Open final, eyeing Roger Federer

Rafael Nadal plays Novak Djokovic in Sunday’s French Open final in what could be a history-altering showdown.

The top two seeds swept respective semifinals on Friday to set a clash anticipated since both men committed to the first Roland Garros held in the autumn. NBC, NBCSports.com/live and the NBC Sports app air live coverage at 9 a.m. ET.

Nadal eyes a record-extending 13th French Open title, and a 20th Grand Slam singles title to match Roger Federer‘s male record.

The 34-year-old Spaniard hasn’t dropped a set in six matches, dispatching 12th-seeded Argentine Diego Schwartzman 6-3, 6-3, 7-6 (0) on Friday.
