RECORD champion Rafael Nadal is locked in an all-time Grand Slam battle with world number one Novak Djokovic going into the French Open but both could end up being upstaged by teenage sensation Carlos Alcaraz.

Nadal, a 13-time title-winner on the Parisian red clay, is far from his unstoppable best as he nurses a chronic foot injury that flared up again in the buildup to Roland Garros.

Nadal’s astounding triumph meant he became the first male player to reach 21 Grand Slam titles, pulling ahead of Roger Federer and Djokovic on the all-time list. Djokovic is also no stranger to comebacks on the big stage, winning the title in Paris last year after battling from two sets down to outlast Tsitsipas.

The teenager has taken the tennis world by storm this year with four titles, including in Miami and Madrid, and will arrive in Paris established as one of the title favorites.
