Djokovic had significantly less trouble than Nadal on the way to the quarterfinals. The Serb defeated Argentinian Diego Schwartzman (29) 6: 1, 6: 3, 6: 3, then said: “I’m very happy with my performance. But it’s not over yet.”
The two tennis stars meet for the 59th time today. It couldn’t be more balanced: Djokovic won 32 times, Nadal won 28 times. The Serb is aiming for his 21st Grand Slam title. If Djokovic wins the French Open 2022, he will draw level with Nadal.
“We know each other very well and have a lot of history together. I’ll definitely fight to the end,” Nadal announced ahead of the quarterfinals. “I’m ready,” assured Djokovic: “I like how I feel and how I hit the ball.”
