Novak Djokovic has been dominating the competition heading into the quarterfinals at the 2014 French Open, and with how well he's been playing so far, it looks like the world's No. 2-ranked player will be heading into the final round.

Nadal's side looks much more difficult, as he'll be going against names like David Ferrer, Gael Monfils and Andy Murray.

Next up, Djokovic will be taking on Raonic. The two met for the first time earlier th...
