Who holds the edge in the Rafael Nadal vs. Alexander Zverev rivalry heading into their Roland Garros semi-final?
Rafael Nadal and Alexander Zverev have played nine times at Tour level, with the Spaniard holding a 6-3 lead in their ATP Head2Head series.
The players will meet for the 10th time Friday in the Roland Garros semi-finals.
The Spaniard and German have not played in more than a year, when they clashed in back-to-back weeks at the ATP Masters 1000 clay-court events in Madrid (won by Zverev) and Rome (won by Nadal).
Nadal has won four of their five clay-court meetings and won their first five meetings on all surfaces between 2016 and 2018. Zverev won three straight matches between 2019 and his Madrid triumph in 2021.
