Rafa defeated David Ferrer: 6-3, 6-2, 6-3 after two hours and 16 minutes with 35 winners and 25 unforced errors and he is once again King at Roland Garros !!!
Congratulations Rafaaaaaaaa !!!

After he passed Bjorn Borg last year for the most titles at Roland Garros this year Rafa made history. He became the first man to win the same Grand Slam eight times.

After the final, Rafa said: "The feeling on court was great. The matches against David Ferrer are always difficult. I think the score is much easier than what the match was today. I think for moments I played great. I think a few moments in the match I played at a very, very high level.
"Eight times here is a lot. I never thought about that. But I will keep practising with the same passion and intensity to bring my tennis to the highest level possible."

"It was a very emotional, very important victory for me. This remained the step after the comeback from the injury. I won at 250, then a 500, then a Masters 1000, so the Grand Slam remained. It happened today and it`s a big persoanl satisfaction that it happened. A lot of people helped me a lot to be back here today. I will not say everyone because I will forget , but because of them, today here I am with this trophy. That means a lot more for me."

Rafa pulled out from Gerry Weber Open. So, the next tournament in Rafa`s schedule is the third Grand Slam of the year: Wimbledon. The tournament starts on June 24th.




VAMOS RAFA !!!
