Rafa's most dominate run for me was his 2017 French Open title or his La Decima. He lost 35 games (3 more than Borg) but in Borgs run his closest match was to Tanner where he won 6-2,6-4,7-6 (12 games lost). In 2017 Nadals toughest match was to Robin Haase in the 2nd round where he won 6-1,6-4,6-3 (8 games lost). No one won more than 4 games in a set the whole tournament and that includes a beat down of great players like Thiem 6-3,6-4,6-0 in the semis and to the Stanimal in the finals 6-2,6-3,6-1. It's the most dominate title I've ever seen him win and this was after 2 years of not winning in Paris and people questioning if Nadal was done winning slams.
