Nadal, a 14-time Roland Garros champion whose record may never be surpassed, was honored by tennis rivals Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer.

Novak defeated Mackenzie McDonald, Corentin Moutet, Filip Misolic and Cameron Norrie en route to his 62nd Major quarter-final and the first after turning 38. He kicked off the tournament with 96 Roland Garros triumphs, and the 100th came in the fourth round against Norrie. Novak earned a dominant 6-2, 6-3, 6-2 triumph in two hours and 14 minutes.

Novak Djokovic cleared a major hurdle in pursuit of a fourth Roland-Garros title, defeating No. 3 Alexander Zverev 4-6, 6-3, 6-2, 6-4 in the quarterfinals on Wednesday in Paris.
