Who among the following is the winner of the French Open 2021 Men’s Singles Final?
- (a)Novak Djokovic
- (b)Rafael Nadal
- (c)Stefanos Tsitsipas
- (d)Daniil Medvedev
Correct — A, Novak Djokovic. Novak Djokovic won the 2021 French Open men's singles title, coming back from two sets down to beat Stefanos Tsitsipas in the final. It was his 19th Grand Slam singles title and his second at Roland Garros. Rafael Nadal, the usual clay-court favourite, had been beaten by Djokovic in that year's semi-final. So the champion was Djokovic, option (a).
- (b)Rafael Nadal — The 'King of Clay' lost to Djokovic in the 2021 semi-final, so he did not win that year's title.
- (c)Stefanos Tsitsipas — He reached the final and led two sets to love, but lost to Djokovic in five sets.
- (d)Daniil Medvedev — He did not reach the 2021 French Open final.
The French Open (Roland Garros) is the clay-court Grand Slam held in Paris. In 2021 Novak Djokovic won the men's singles, recovering from two sets down against Stefanos Tsitsipas in the final.
The tempting wrong pick is Nadal, who usually dominates on clay; the discriminator is that Djokovic beat him in the semi-final and then took the title.
- Djokovic won the 2021 French Open men's singles, beating Tsitsipas in a five-set final.
- He beat Rafael Nadal in that year's semi-final on the way to the title.
- It was, as of the November 2021 exam, his 19th Grand Slam singles title; his tally has grown since.
- The women's singles title in 2021 was won by Barbora Krejcikova of the Czech Republic.
- Defaulting to Nadal because he usually wins on clay.
- Confusing the men's and women's 2021 champions (the women's title went to Barbora Krejcikova).
