Throughout his legendary career, which spanned two decades, Rafael Nadal broke numerous records on the ATP tour. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Before his old rival Novak Djokovic<\/a> surpassed him in 2023, Nadal<\/a> was the player with the most Grand Slam titles in men\u2019s tennis history. <\/p>\n

Of his 22 major crowns, 14 of them were captured at Roland Garros, a tally that very well may never be topped. <\/p>\n

The Spaniard was unstoppable on clay and holds an incredible record on the surface that recently retired Eugenie Bouchard<\/a> simply cannot believe. <\/p>\n

A post on X, formerly known as Twitter, showed that Nadal had captured 63 titles at clay-court tournaments. <\/p>\n

His tally of clay crowns is greater than his total of career losses on the dirt, having been defeated 51 times. <\/p>\n

Responding to the post, Bouchard, who played her last match at the Canadian Open<\/a>, had her say on the statistic. <\/p>\n

She took to social media to say: \u201cThis makes me want to throw up.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nadal holds the all-time record for ATP<\/a> clay-court titles, and leads the player in second place on the list by 14. <\/p>\n

Guillermo Vilas trails him with 49 and won the US Open in 1977, the last year the tournament was played on the surface. <\/p>\nPlayerClay Court Titles<\/tr>\n\nRafael Nadal<\/td>\n63<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nGuillermo Vilas<\/td>\n49<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nThomas Muster<\/td>\n40<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nManuel Orantes<\/td>\n32<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nBjorn Borg<\/td>\n32<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
