Elite Winners: Nadal, Russell, Auriemma amass championships

Rafael Nadal can win his 10th French Open title by beating Stan Wawrinka in Sunday’s final in Paris.

Nadal would become the first player – man or woman – to win 10 titles at one Grand Slam tournament in the Open era, which began in 1968, when professionals were admitted to the events.

He already won championships at Roland Garros in 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014. He is 9-0 in French Open finals.
