Rafael Nadal stays on course for a record 13 French Open titles as he drops just five games on his way to beating Italy's Stefano Travaglia in the third round
Spain's Rafael Nadal celebrates winning his third-round match against Italy's Stefano Travaglia in Paris, France, on October 2, 2020.
"I think today I played the best match this year at Roland Garros," said Nadal, now 96-2 at the French Open in his 16th appearance. Hugo Gaston, the lone Frenchman left in the draw, quickly became the second such lowly-ranked man in the fourth round when the world number 239 shocked 2015 champion Stan Wawrinka 2-6, 6-3, 6-3, 4-6, 6-0 in a rain-interrupted tie.
The reigning Wimbledon champion made only seven unforced errors as she stretched her career-best winning run to 17 matches.
