#2. Rafael Nadal- 35, 2017 French Open
Rafael Nadal wrapped off a successful clay-court season this year by winning the French Open, defeating Stan Wawrinka in the final in straight sets.
Nadal won the tournament without dropping a single set, thus winning the French Open without dropping a single set thrice - having done it previously in 2008 and 2010.
Nadal dropped only 35 games en route to his 10th French Open title with Robin Hasse’s 8 games won in the second round making it the most number of games Nadal would go on to lose throughout the entire tournament.
Nadal owned all of his opponents throughout the tournament with even Wawrinka (who had never lost in a Grand Slam final before this game) managing to win only 6 games.
