Staggering numbers racked up by Nadal
With a lifetime record of 100-2 in Paris, Nadal becomes the first player to achieve triple digit match victories at Roland-Garros.
Nadal joins Federer atop the all-time men's singles Grand Slam titles list with 20. Only Margaret Court (24), Serena Williams (23) and Steffi Graf (22) have won more major singles titles than Nadal.
With his 2020 title, Nadal clears Navratilova to become the only professional player -- male or female -- to win the same tour event 13 times.
Nadal is six titles clear of Evert (7) for the all-time lead in Roland-Garros singles titles won, and seven clear of the legendary Bjorn Borg (6) for the all-time lead in men's singles titles won in Paris.
At the Grand Slams, Nadal has now surpassed Margaret Court, who won 11 Australian Open titles, by two.
Nadal is now the only men's singles player in history to win a major without dropping a single set four different times.
By winning this title in Paris, Nadal now has won his sixth Grand Slam title since turning 30, which leaves him as the only man to have won more than five major singles titles beyond the age of 30.
