French Open: Rafael Nadal Wins Title For Third Time In A Row

It could only be "incredible" outcome for Rafael Nadal who won his third consecutive Roland Garros title having defeated Dominic Thiem in the final.
Nadal was forced to fought through four sets as the Austrian staged a comeback in the second set but he  sets to claim his 12th victory in Coupe was Mousquetaires by 6-3, 5-7, 6-1, 6-1 after playing for three hours.
"It is truly incredible. I cannot explain it," says the Spaniard after winning his 18th Gram Slam titles at Court Philippe Chatrier.
The second set win will be first set the Autrian has ever claimed against the world no. 2 at Roland Garros which ended as his ninth defeat to the Spaniard in 13th ATP Fedex meetings.
"The beginning was unbelievable intensity of the match...Then I played the way I should play in the second set, very aggressive," says Thiem.
