- Murray in awe of Nadal’s ‘incredible’ Roland Garros record
- ‘No one will get close’ to Nadal’s 13 titles, says Murray
Andy Murray says Rafael Nadal’s 13 French Open singles titles stands as one of the greatest records in sport. Speaking at the ATP 250 event in Cologne a day after Nadal defeated Novak Djokovic 6-0, 6-2, 7-5 to equal Roger Federer’s men’s record of 20 grand slams, Murray spoke admiringly of his longtime rival and friend.
“Amazing achievement, I don’t think what he has done at Roland Garros will ever be beaten,” Murray said. “He could win another one and make it 14 or 15, whatever he finishes on, but he is one short of winning the same amount of grand slams as [Pete] Sampras did [overall] at just one tournament.
