Once again @RafaelNadal proves why beating him in a best-of-five set match on clay is arguably the biggest challenge in all of sport.

I mean have we seen consistency and dominance like this anywhere else? #RG19
There will never be another Nadal. Congratulations to @RafaelNadal on an incredible 12th French Open win. A genius on clay, with a tremendous work ethic, he’s a role model both on and off the court. Well done! #RG19 https://t.co/sAmolnGuUW

The physical toll that Rafa puts on you in a 3 out of 5 set match is perhaps the most underrated thing he does to you. Impossible for anyone to know that hasn’t experienced it first hand.
