Tennis at the Paris Olympics 2024 will witness the clash of the titans as Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal will square off in the second round of men's singles on Monday, July 29. It will be their 60th career meeting in a rivalry that has become a cornerstone of the sport.

Djokovic barely broke a sweat in the first round as he kicked off his Olympic campaign with a dominant 6-0, 6-1 win over Matthew Ebden. Nadal, on the other hand, had to dig deep to get past Marton Fucsovics in his opener, securing a 6-1, 4-6, 6-4 victory.

It is only fitting that the two will contest their 60th career meeting at Roland Garros, which is the venue for the Paris Olympics. The two crossed paths for the very first time on the clay courts of the French Open way back in 2006. The Spaniard came out on top after his rival retired at the start of the third set.

Nadal is in the midst of another comeback this year, and has tasted modest success. He recently made the final of the Swedish Open, his first since winning the French Open in 2022.

Djokovic has had his own share of setbacks this year, though he now seems to be rediscovering his groove. He finished as the runner-up at Wimbledon a few weeks ago, which was his first final of the season as well. This will be their first duel since Nadal won their quarterfinal match at the French Open two years ago.

Djokovic leads Nadal 30-29 in the head-to-head. The latter leads the former 20-8 on clay, 11-7 in Grand Slam matches, and 1-0 at the Olympics. However, the Serb's fitness is miles better compared to his rival, which could make a huge difference this time.

Regardless of the outcome, this is a match-up that the world has been aniticipating for more than two years now. Here are all the details on how to watch their upcoming battle at the Paris Olympics:
