King of Clay Rafael Nadal formally bid goodbye to tennis at the event that propelled his career: the French Open. On Sunday, the Spaniard was honored at Roland Garros in an emotionally-charged farewell. Throughout his illustrious career, the Spaniard won a record 14 titles at the clay-court grand slam.

On a hot, windy day at the 2023 French Open, women’s world number-one Iga Swiatek—who turned 22 during the tournament—took on the unseeded Karolína Muchová, of the Czech Republic, in a thrilling three-set match, winning 6-2, 5-7, 6-4.
