For what is probably the last ever time these two meet in a grand slam final. No one thought either would ever make a grand slam final again much less against one another. And this is the most important one of their careers.
If Rog wins, he practically cements his place as the GOAT, as he would have 18 slams compared to Rafa's 14, but if Rafa wins then that debate gets very interesting!
If Rafa wins the gap closes to 17-15 and Rafa will have all the momentum and motivation he needs to close it further in Paris. Not only that, but it would mean Rafa has a 24-11 edge all time against Rog, going 7-2 in grand slam finals.
It would also mean Rafa would be the first person to complete the career grand slam twice over, all while doing so when playing his entire career in an era with Rog, Novak, and Andy. Remember, Rog won his first half dozen slams between the Sampras/Agassi generation and this current one.
So sit back and enjoy tomorrow, as the winner could lay claim for good to the title of the GOAT!
