French Open 2022, Rafael Nadal vs Alexander Zverev: Where to watch, TV schedule, live streaming details and more | Semifinals
Rafael Nadal will take on Alexander Zverev in the semifinals of the 2022 French Open on Friday.
The World No. 5, who turns 36 on Friday, booked his place in the final four by defeating old rival Novak Djokovic in four sets in a grueling quarterfinal showdown on Tuesday night.
The Serb entered the match without dropping a single set in the tournament, but Nadal produced some spectacular tennis to beat him.
GIGANTIC NADAL!!
While he was not starting as a favorite, Rafa managed to transcend himself to win a titanic match against Novak Djokovic in 4 sets and reach a 15th semi-final in @rolandgarros! https://t.co/B6IxG9ntL4
Third seed Alexander Zverev, meanwhile, has been in pretty good form during the European claycourt swing. The German will be high on confidence after defeating Carlos Alcaraz in the quarterfinals in four sets.

This will be the 10th meeting between Nadal and Zverev, with the King of Clay leading the head-to-head 6-3.
The last time the two met at a Grand Slam was in the third round of the Australian Open back in 2017. Nadal won that match in five sets.
The 13-time Roland Garros champion will enter this highly-anticipated showdown as the favorite to win, but someone of Zverev's caliber should not be written off. The German has beaten Nadal on clay before and is more than capable of giving the Spaniard a run for his money.
The winner of the match will play either Casper Ruud or Marin Cilic in the French Open final on Sunday.
