Nadal has won two titles on clay this season at Barcelona and Rome May 25, 2021 11:08 BST Rafael Nadal s coach Francisco Roig says Novak Djokovic and the Spaniard are still the favourites going into the French Open despite the emergence of the younger players during the 2021 clay court swing. The 20-time men s singles Grand Slam champion has won two titles – the Barcelona Open and the Italian Open – on his favourite surface this season. But Nadal was beaten in the quarterfinals at the Masters 1000 events in Monte Carlo and Madrid. Djokovic, on the other hand, has yet to claim a title on clay this season. The Serbian world No.1 lost in the round of 16 at the Monte Carlo Masters, in the semifinals at the Belgrade Open and in the final to Nadal in Rome. He is currently playing an ATP 250 event in Serbia to prepare for the French Open later this month.
