On Sunday, October 11 it will be fest for Tennis fans over the world as two of the best Novak Djokovic will take on Rafael Nadal in the French Open Title.

World Number 1, Djokovic setted up this blockbuster final after beating Greek Star Stefanos Tsitispas in a five game dramatic set by 6-3,6-2,5-7,4-6,6-1 after he was dominating the match at the third set.

Djokovic won the French Open Title in 2016 will face arguably the greatest performer in French Open history Rafael Nadal who has won this tournament a record 12 titles and has now reached his 13th Final. If Djokovic can win on Sunday, then he will win his 18th Grand Slam title and become the first men in half a century to win all 4 slams twice(Australian, French, Britian and US open).

If Nadal the orld number two were to win on on Sunday then he will equal the number of Grand Slams titles a record of 20 set by Roger Federer. Interestingly Djokovic is only one of the two men to ever beat Nadal in the French Open, doing so in 2015.

Speaking ahead of the pair's 56th career clash, Djokovic praised Nadal and said this is his(Nadal) house and it will be his biggest challenge in facing him in the clay field. He even had praises for Stefanos who had appeared in just his second semi final Slam by saying that he gave him a hard time and caused all sorts of trouble for him(Djokovic).
