Nadal Improves to 63-1 at Roland Garros



Determined to keep his winning streak alive, Rafael Nadal left no doubts against Dusan Lajovic in his fourth-round matchup on Monday, crushing the Serb in straight sets, 6-1, 6-2, 6-1, to reach his ninth career French Open quarterfinal. 

The win not only improves Nadal to 63-1 all time on the Paris clay, but it also bodes extremely well for the Spaniard, who has never lost the French Open after getting past the round of 16.

Although he was content to soak in the victory, per Roland Garros on Twitter, Nadal will have little time to rest as he's set to face compatriot David Ferrer in the quarterfinals later this week:



Nadal leads the all-time head-to-head with Ferrer 21-6 but has lost two of their previous three meetings, including a clay-court showdown in the quarterfinals of Monte Carlo earlier this year.

While Nadal clearly boasts the stronger record of the two, a lack of confidence could potentially derail his bid to knock off his countryman for the third straight year at the French Open. Regardless, the favorite will be busy celebrating his 28th birthday on his off day on Tuesday.
