Three-time defending champion Rafael Nadal defeated Novak Djokovic in the final 6–0, 6–2, 7–5 to win the Men's Singles tennis title at the 2020 French Open.[1] It was his record-extending 13th French Open title and record-equaling 20th major title overall (matching Roger Federer's all-time record). For the fourth time in his career, Nadal won the title without dropping a set throughout the entire tournament; for the first time in French Open history, neither the men's nor women's singles champions lost a set.[2] Nadal also became the first player, male or female, to win 100 matches at the French Open and only the second man, after Federer at the Australian Open and Wimbledon, to win 100 matches at a single major.[2] Djokovic was attempting to become the first man in the Open Era to achieve the double career Grand Slam (a feat he would accomplish at the following year's tournament).[3][4]

Lorenzo Giustino defeated Corentin Moutet 0–6, 7–6(9–7), 7–6(7–3), 2–6, 18–16 in the first round. The match was the second-longest in French Open history, lasting 6 hours and 5 minutes,[5] and the fourth-longest in the history of major tournaments.[6] Taylor Fritz and Lorenzo Sonego played the longest tie-break in French Open history. Sonego won the third set tie-break 19–17 to win the third-round match 7–6(7–5), 6–3, 7–6(19–17).[7]

Jannik Sinner became the first male player to reach the quarterfinals of Roland Garros in his debut since Nadal in 2005 and the youngest quarterfinalist since Djokovic in 2006.[8]

Hugo Gaston (ranked world No. 239) became the lowest-ranked man to reach the fourth round of Roland Garros since Arnaud Di Pasquale in 2002.[9]
