Novak Djokovic has accomplished a great deal by defeating 13-time winner Rafael Nadal in the Roland Garros men's singles semi-final and advancing to the final of the French Open 2021.

Djokovic became the first player in Roland Garros history to defeat Nadal twice, winning 3-6, 6-3, 7-6, 6-2 against a player regarded as the top in clay court tennis history.

Since his debut in 2005, Nadal has only lost three matches at the claycourt Grand Slam in his whole career. The Spaniard had won four titles in Paris in the previous four years, bringing his total to 20.
