Rafael Nadal beat Roger Federer 6-3, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4 in the 2007 final in Paris to win his third Grand Slam title before the Spaniard moved on to secure a further 19 - 14 of them at Roland Garros - becoming one of the sport's greatest players. The auctioned racquet had not only played a pivotal role in Nadal's historic French Open win but was also used in earlier matches of the tournament, including the semi-final against Novak Djokovic.
