Rafael Nadal set a target of winning his 14th French Open title against Casper Roode in the final on Sunday.

Here’s a look at a typical group of other athletes with 14 or more titles in the same event:

Phil Taylor

Phil “The Power” Taylor is the undisputed greatest darts player in history with a record 16 world titles. He achieved his first win in 1990 and scored eight consecutive runs between 1995 and 2002. Taylor has been instrumental in turning darts into the force it is today. The Englishman retired from the sport after losing the 2018 final to Rob Cross.

Giacomo Agostini

The motorcycle legend won 15 world titles, including eight in the top 500 cc. His other seven came in the now-defunct 350cc class. The Italian won all his world championships in a nine-year period, doubling down in 1968, 1969, 1970, 1971 and 1972. Agostini tops the all-time list of world champions, two clear of Spaniard Angel Nieto. His total of 122 race wins is also a record.

Trevor Brazil

The 45-year-old rodeo artist has won a record 26 PRCA world titles, including 14 all-around Cowboy Crowns. This tally is more than double the previous record set by Ty Murray in 1998. Five years ago, he said that he “wanted to be remembered as a great cowboy”. His last PRCA success came in 2020.
