Having endured a difficult 18 months in which he has struggled with injuries, Nadal arrives at the French Open in an unfamiliar position. Currently ranked 276th in the world, the 14-time champion is unseeded and has been drawn against a possible contender for the title in the in-form Zverez.
It is an extremely tough draw for the Spaniard in what is set to be his final appearance at a tournament where he has enjoyed unparalleled success. Nadal has a remarkable 112-3 record on the clay courts in Paris but has struggled on his favourite surface this season, falling in the fourth round in Madrid and then losing in straight sets in the second round in Rome.
While Nadal is struggling physically, Zverev is fit, strong and in excellent form. The German did not have the best start to the clay season but won the Italian Open title last week to secure his first Masters title since 2021. He also has a strong record at the French Open, having reached the semi-finals for the last three years in a row.
You won’t want to miss this heavyweight contest so read on to discover how to get a Nadal vs Zverev live stream and watch the French Open from wherever you are.
