Rafael Nadal said world number one Novak Djokovic was the favourite to win their quarter-final match at the recently concluded French Open. "Normally it would have gone differently, but it's true that this place has something special," he added. Nadal, who won French Open for the record-extending 14th time on Sunday, defeated Djokovic 6-2, 4-6, 6-2, 7-6(7-4) in the last-eight.
