When Andy Roddick says it\\u2019s one of the greatest matches he\\u2019s ever seen, Andy Murray describes it as \\u2018perfect\\u2019, and Cher weighs in, you know a tennis match has been a bit special. 

After Novak Djokovic did the impossible - again! - and beat Rafael Nadal at Roland Garros, Catherine, David and Matt tried to make sense of it all. How did he do it? What was up with Nadal? And was the third set the best set of tennis ever? 

There\\u2019s also chat about Stefanos Tsitsipas\\u2019 emotional victory over Alexander Zverev to reach his first Grand Slam final. Why did he go off the boil in sets three and four? And does he stand a chance against Djokovic on Sunday? 

Looking ahead to Barbora Krejcikova vs. Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova in the women\\u2019s final, we give our predictions.
