 "Nadal's eight French Open title leaves Twitter world in a daze")
Rafael Nadal coasted past David Ferrer on Sunday to win his eighth French Open title — an incredible record which comes on his comeback trail after a serious knee injury. Nadal has to fight an epic battle against Novak Djokovic to get to the final, and it was past Ferrer to pose any sort of threat to the master of clay at the finals.
