Spain’s Rafa Nadal will face Djokovic today at Roland Garros semi-final

Nadal has lost only one match at Roland Garros, and that was to Robin Soderling in 2009, but today that record could be strongly tested by Djokovic.

The world number one lost to Nadal in the final here last year despite a run of eight games in a row but has won eight of their last 11 matches including the most recent one in Monte Carlo.

There is plenty at stake in the second semi-final as well, with David Ferrer looking to reach a first grand slam final and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga bidding to end France’s 25-year wait for a male finalist.
