2017 French Open Men's Singles Final - Rafael Nadal(Spain)beat Stan Wawrinka(Swiss)and wins 10th French Open Title Sunday June 11,2017

Rafael Nadal secures sensational 'La Decima' with French Open final victory over Stan Wawrinka at Roland Garros

Rafael Nadal(Spain) coasted to a record 10th French Open title on Sunday June 11,2017, demolishing Stan Wawrinka (Swiss)in a brutally one-sided final which also earned the Spaniard a 15th Grand Slam crown.

Nadal, 31, triumphed 6-2, 6-3, 6-1 to become the first man in history to win the same major 10 times. His collection of Slams now stands just three behind great rival Roger Federer, a staggering statistic coming just a year after he quit Roland Garros with a wrist injury.

Playing in his 22nd Grand Slam final, Nadal triumphed in Paris without dropping a set for a third time.

He also lost just 35 games in total and only six in the final, his most comprehensive victory since allowing Roger Federer four games in the 2008 final.

Once Hollywood A-lister Nicole Kidman had helped unbox the Coupe des Mousquetaires to a crowd already wilting in 30-degree heat, the final was underway.

It was the 22nd Slam finale for Nadal; just the fourth for Wawrinka, the oldest man in the championship match in 44 years. Sunday was also the first time since 1969 that the Roland Garros final had featured two men over 30
