2020 French Open

• Rafael Nadal def. Novak Djokovic, 6–0, 6–2, 7–5

The Men's Singles event began on 27 September with the first of seven total rounds. 32 players were seeded, while the other 96 players were not.[18] Of those seeded players, eleven were defeated in the first round, notably No. 4 Daniil Medvedev,[19] No. 8 Gaël Monfils,[20] and No. 11 David Goffin.[21] As the French Open is the only remaining Grand Slam tournament that uses the advantage set, there exists the possibility of significantly longer final sets, as seen in the first round match between Lorenzo Giustino and Corentin Moutet. The match was won after just over six hours by the former, 0–6, 7–6 (7), 7–6 (3), 2–6, 18–16, and was the second-longest match in French Open history.[22] Denis Shapovalov, John Isner, and Dušan Lajović were the highest of the five seeded players to exit in the second round,[23][24] and a further nine seeded players were defeated in the third and fourth rounds. Of the eight players that qualified for the finals, seven were seeded, with Jannik Sinner (who lost only one set in the first four rounds combined) the lone exception.[25]

In the quarterfinals, No. 1 Novak Djokovic defeated No. 17 Pablo Carreño Busta (Djokovic's loss in the first set was his first dropped set of the tournament),[26] No. 5 Stefanos Tsitsipas defeated No. 13 Andrey Rublev,[27] No. 12 Diego Schwartzman upset No. 3 Dominic Thiem,[28] and No. 2 Rafael Nadal ended the upset bid of Jannik Sinner.[29] The two semifinal matches told very different tales; Nadal dominated Schwartzman, beating him in straight sets,[30] while Djokovic opened against Tsitsipas by winning the first two sets, but dropped the next two before winning the final set 6–1 to take the match.[31] In the championship, Nadal opened dominantly with a first-set bagel and a 6–2 performance in the second set, and finished with a 7–5 final set to win the title. This marked Nadal's fourth consecutive and 13th overall French Open title and his 20th overall Grand Slam singles title, equaling Roger Federer's all-time record.[32] Furthermore, Nadal did not lose a single set throughout the entire tournament.
