Last Year 2014 the Finals French Open Headline was:
"Rafael Nadal (Rafa) Beats Novak Djokovic (The Joker) For Ninth French Open Win! "
This year is a bit different. Rafa and The Joker will face each other tomorrow at The French Open. Coverage will begin in the morning June 3rd at 8 am Eastern Standard Time on ESPN2. This to me is as big as the finals. Hate to say this as I am rooting for Rafa, Novak will be favored. Novak has not lost in quite some time (26 consecutive matches won). Rafa on the other hand is meeting Djokovich because he has fallen in the mens ATP standings. Nadal is ranked 7th. They have met 6 times and this will be their 7th meeting. Novak Djokovich is ranked No. 1. The Joker is the favorite even though Nadal has won the French nine times. This match is one of the highlights of the 2015 French Open. Nadal is not happy about having to meet him now but as they say Life on Life's Terms. Good Luck Gentlemen!
