Rafael Nadal, the defending champion and, after this tournament, six-time winner of this event defended his title by beating long-time rival Roger Federer 7–5, 7–6, 5–7, 6–1 for his sixth French Open title, tying him with Björn Borg for most all-time in the open era. Notably, the Spaniard played his first ever five-set match at Roland Garros since his debut in 2005, beating John Isner in the first round. This edition of the tournament witnessed the top four seeds advancing to the semifinals. The tournament saw the end of the streak of Djokovic, who was one away from tying John McEnroe for best-ever start to a season with 42 wins, before he was defeated by Federer in the semifinals.
