Jean Catuffe/Getty Images(PARIS) — Rafael Nadal bested Roger Federer in three straight sets on Friday to move on to the French Open final for the 12th time in his career.
The No. 2-seeded Nadal beat Federer, the No. 3 seed, 6-3, 6-4, 6-2.
The 33-year-old will now face either the No. 1-seeded Novak Djokovic or No. 4-seeded Dominic Thiem in the tournament’s final on Sunday. Should Nadal win, it would be his 12th championship at Roland Garros.
