Rafael Nadal has been inhaling money at Roland Garros on an almost yearly basis over the past several iterations of the French Open. That is also another way that he’s the man to beat entering the 2019 French Open, where he’ll be gunning to win his 12th title at the event and third in a row. Aside from further cementing his legacy on clay, Nadal will also play for the over $2.5 million in total prize for the champion. Nadal, however, doesn’t seem to be in top form, as he has yet to win a title this year (pending an ongoing Italian Open). Nadal will not settle for any less, and it sure is going to be tough for the 32-year-old Spaniard. However, he’ll still get a cool sum if he gets eliminated early. Players who’ll make the finals will be guaranteed of $1.3 million, while those who’ll get bounced in the round of 128 will still be eligible to receive $51,436.
