Rafael Nadal's 11th French Open title raised his Grand Slam trophy count to 17, three away from the men's record held by Roger Federer.
That doesn't necessarily mean Nadal is fixated on catching his rival. "Of course I would love to have 20, like Roger, in the future - or even more," Nadal said
Sunday evening after beating Dominic Thiem 6-4, 6-3, 6-2 in the final at Roland Garros, "but being honest, (it's) something that is not in my mind." He added that it's not an "obsession."
"I can't be always thinking of more. Of course, I have ambition. Of course, I have passion for what I am doing. But I never have been crazy about all this kind of stuff. No, you can't be frustrated always if somebody has more money than you, if somebody have a bigger house than you, if somebody have more Grand Slams than you. You can't live with that feeling, no?"
Here are other things we learned at the 2018 French Open:
HALEP CAN WIN THE BIG ONE
SERENA STILL SUPERB
NOT THEIR TIME YET
AMERICAN WOMEN
"All in all," Stephens said, "I don't think anyone can complain."
DON'T LEAVE!
