An announcer read off tennis legend Rafael Nadal‘s 14 French Open titles ahead of his first-round match on Monday, and fans absolutely loved it.
Rafael Nadal is known for his impeccable skills during any tournament played on clay. But the French Open’s clay courts might truly be what sets him apart. Per Roland-Garros, his overall record on clay is an astounding 112-3. Additionally, Nadal’s 97 percent winning percentage is the best by any player at a single Grand Slam tournament.
So, it’s not shocking that a French Open announcer read off every single title at the tournament that Rafael Nadal has won during his career. The moment was so sneaky good and will give you goosebumps. WHEW.
