Dominic Thiem wins a brilliant two-day five-set match. His reward: A French Open final against Rafael Nadal, the greatest clay-court player of them all.
Somebody’s gotta play Rafael Nadal in the French Open final. It’s in the rules; no matter how devastatingly good the guy is on clay surfaces, we can’t just hand him this trophy—the exquisitely-titled La Coupe des Mousquetaires, aka The Musketeer’s Trophy—without making him beat someone.
For the second consecutive time, Nadal’s prey—rather, opponent—is going to be Dominic Thiem, who…well, he got thumped badly by Nadal here last year.
