Rafael Nadal will have trembled against the Argentinian Diego Schwartzman during these quarter-finals. With excellent returns on the balls of the Spanish world number 3, Schwartzman came to sow doubt in the first set (6-3 for Nadal) and will even end up pocketing the second set by breaking the king of the clay on his serve, 6-4. However, the Mallorcan did not let go, pocketed the third set 6-4, extinguishing the hopes of the world number 10. He will come to bury all hope on the last and fourth set, sweeping his opponent 6-0. Small feat all the same on the part of the Argentine, who takes a set to Nadal at Roland Garros, a first for two years. For his part, the Spaniard rallies the semi-finals of Roland Garros for the 14th time.Rafael Nadal will face in the semi-finals the winner of the night between Berrettini and Djokovic.
