The French Open (aka Roland Garros) 2022

Thank goodness I had nothing on my schedule today, because I watched both men's semi-finals--nearly 8 hrs combined--and they were incredibly good. I was sorry to see 19 year old Carlos Alcaraz lose to Zverev, but the match between Nadal and Djokovic was sensational. Nadal, despite his declarations about his physical health being precarious, played as well as I have ever seen him play. and Djokovic was brilliant until he petered out in the final tie-break. If Nadal can keep it up through two more matches, I predict he will win his 14th title at Roland Garros.

What is it about Rafa and Roland Garros?  He had poor preparation and a foot injury in the lead--up to RG, yet he comes up with some elite tennis to beat an in-form Novak.  The semifinal is no cakewalk either since Zverev is playing well.  If Rafa makes it to the final, it should be Slam #22, even with Marin Cilic playing like it's 2014 all over again.
