Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic are all set for their record-extending 59th clash on the ATP tour, this time in the quarterfinals of the 2022 French Open. The World No. 1 defeated Diego Schwartzman in the fourth round in straight sets and is yet to drop a set in the tournament.The 21-time Grand Slam champion, on the other hand, was stretched to five sets by a perseverant Felix Auger-Aliassime in the fourth round. With Djokovic currently leading the head-to-head against the Mallorcan 30-28, the latter will be looking to get one step closer to pulling the tie back in his favor.Tennis TV@TennisTV IT. IS. ON.

Fans were understandably split with their own biases, with both Nadal and Djokovic having an almost equal share of supporters and detractors.While many expect the Serb to pull through based on his relatively low competition load and current form, others pointed out the fallacy of doubting the World No. 5 in an event where he has lifted the trophy 13 times to date.The majority of fans were simply happy about the idea of the two finally meeting after almost an entire year, remarking that, no matter who ends up winning, these memories should be cherished and treasured."We are lucky to be able to watch Djokovic vs Nadal at Roland Garros once again.
