Rafael Nadal will bid for a record-extending 14th French Open title when he meets Casper Ruud on Sunday, in a meeting between master and student.
The Spaniard, who turned 36 on Friday, recorded a 111th win on the Paris clay to reach a 14th final at Roland Garros.
Norwegian eighth seed Ruud, 23, has trained at 21-time Grand Slam champion Nadal's academy in Mallorca since 2018.
"He's playing a student from his academy so it's going to be fun. It's something I've dreamed of," Ruud said.
First-time finalist Ruud, the first player from his country to reach a singles final at a Slam, added: "Nadal is the last of the very top players in the world I have never played against.
