What Happened at the 2022 French Open?
The 2022 women’s singles title was won by Iga Swiatek while Rafael Nadal clinched the men’s singles tournament victory. It was Swiatek’s second French Open tournament win while Nadal zoomed through to his 14th title.
Nadal did not have too many difficulties reaching the fourth round where he was taken to five sets by Felix Auger-Aliassime. His real test was expected to come in the quarterfinals where he met Novak Djokovic but the Spaniard pulled off a ripper to win it in four.
Troubled by Alexander Zverev in the semifinals, it looked like Nadal would be on court for a while before his opponent was struck by an on-court injury and had to retire from the contest in the second set.
In the final, however, Nadal just ran away with the contest, dropping a mere six games to Casper Ruud.
Swiatek, on the other hand, had a far easier run that saw her lose just one set in the entire tournament. That came in the fourth round when Qinwen Zheng overcame the Pole in the first set tie-breaker.
She won the next two sets without trouble though and then proceeded to overcome Jessica Pegula, Daria Kasatkina and Coco Gauff to lift the trophy.
