Rafael Nadal has advanced to a record-extending 12th Roland Garros semifinal with a crushing win over Kei Nishikori
Spain's Rafael Nadal celebrates after his quarterfinal match against Japan's Kei Nishikor in Paris, France on June 4, 2019
The second seed, who now has a 91-2 win-loss record at the clay court Grand Slam, was barely challenged by the seventh-seeded Nishikori as he set up a mouth-wartering last four meeting with 20-time Grand Slam champion Roger Federer. Considering Nishikori had a 0-4 win-loss record against Nadal on clay, his chances of narrowing that run on Tuesday were slim - and so it proved to be.
Nishikori broke back for 1-1 but that effort proved to be his undoing as Nadal won the remaining five games to lead two sets to love.
