Can Novak Djokovic Finally Win His First French Open Title?

Published on June 4th, 2016 9:08 am EST
Novak Djokovic has won more money than any other tennis player in the history of the sport.

Despite all of Djokovic's titles and money, one thing has still eluded his grasp up until this point - a French Open title.

For years, Djokovic would dominate in Australia and England and the United States but would run into a buzzsaw named Rafael Nadal in France. With Nadal's game having declined significantly over the past 5 years, Djokovic is now in a position to win his first French Open title.

Standing in his way will be Andy Murray, who is also looking for his first French Open title. Murray, currently the #2 ranked player in the world behind Djokovic, will be looking to post a big win on Sunday against Djokovic.
