With this win Nadal also moved into solo second on the all-time major titles list with No. 15, behind only Roger Federer’s 18 victories. He will also move to World No. 2 in the Emirates ATP Rankings on Monday.<\/p>\n
\u201c[It’s] been magical, all the things that have happened in this tournament for me. I’m so very happy for everything,\u201d Nadal said. \u201cToday was a very important day for me. There have been some tough moments… injuries, so it’s great to have big success like this again.\u201d<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Wawrinka who reached the final, his second Roland Garros title match, in top form, having beaten World No. 1 Andy Murray in memorable five-set semi-final, had no answer for Nadal in Paris.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe’s playing the best he’s ever played. That’s for sure. But not only here. I think since the beginning of the year, you can see he’s playing more aggressive, staying more close to the line,\u201d Wawrinka said. \u201cThat’s why he’s winning so much again.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
