Rafael Nadal vs Novak Djokovic, Paris Olympics 2024: Timing in India, Live Streaming & Head to Head Record

Tennis heavyweights Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic will clash in the Paris Olympics 2024 men's singles second round match at the Roland-Garros - Court Philippe-Chatrier in Paris, France.

Spain's Nadal beat Hungary's Marton Fucsovics 6-1, 4-6, 6-4 in his opening round match, while Serbia's Djokovic had clinched victory in his first-round clash with a 6-0, 6-1 scoreline against Australia's Matthew Ebden.

Many would have wanted the giants of the game to clash in the medal rounds, but the draw has got them facing early in the tournament with one great's run likely to end when the pair take to court.

Nadal, a former gold medallist at the Games in 2008, came into the Olympics without a single Grand Slam match win this year. But the veteran Spaniard is playing on the surface which he holds a terrific record, including winning a record 14 titles at Roland Garros.

The 38-year-old, however, has missed most action this year. While he did not compete in the Australian Open in January and Wimbledon in July, Nadal bowed out of the French Open in May against eventual runner-up Alexander Zverev.

Djokovic, a bronze medallist in 2008, also heads into the Paris Games on the back of Grand Slam title-less year, having lost the Wimbledon final to Nadal's compatriot Carlos Alcaraz. The Serb also exited the Australian Open in semi-finals and French Open in quarterfinals.
