'A quite staggering sporting achievement'

Russell Fuller and Chanda Rubin commentate on the moment Rafael Nadal won an historic 11th French Open title by beating Dominic Thiem in straight sets.

Fuller said: "The run that began in 2005 continues here in 2018 as he embraces Dominic Thiem at the net.

"A quite staggering sporting achievement that bears comparison with the great sporting achievements of all time."

The Spaniard won 6-4 6-3 6-2 to earn his 17th Grand Slam, three adrift of Roger Federer's all-time men's record.
