Moments after winning a historic 14th French Open title, Rafael Nadal questioned if he’d ever step foot again on the clay court he’s effectively claimed as his own.
The King of Clay dominated Norway’s Casper Ruud in straight sets Sunday to earn his 22nd career Grand Slam while improving his record at Roland Garros to 112–3. After the match, Nadal, 36, admitted he is unsure if he will return to the event in 2023.
