Rafael Nadal vs Casper Ruud – French Open final FREE: Live stream, TV channel, start time for men's final

RAFAEL NADAL is aiming for an unprecedented 14th French Open title when he faces Casper Ruud in the final.

And Nadal, 36, had helped to mentor Ruud, 23, at his training school when the Norwegian star was a teenager.

Nadal said about his past with Ruud: “I think in the academy we were able to help him a little bit during this period of time.

“But more than another thing it’s about I like to see the good person achieving his dreams.

“For me, Casper is one of the candidates for winning in every clay-court event that he’s playing. He’s one of the clear favourites. He’s not a big surprise at all.”

Ruud said about record 21-time Grand Slam champ Nadal: “I will try to figure something else out other than in the practice, how to beat him. I will just enjoy the moment.

“This is a special occasion for both of us. He’s playing for his 22nd. I’m playing for my first.”
