The 15th and final day of the 2013 French Open will wrap up on Sunday, with the men's final between seven-time champion Rafael Nadal and Spanish compatriot David Ferrer headlining the action.

Nadal has lost just once at Roland Garros in his entire career and is the three-time reigning winner of the year's second Grand Slam event. However, it took him five sets to defeat No. 1 seed Novak Djokovic in an epic semifinals showdown, while Ferrer enters having not lost a set in Paris thus far.

Italy's top-seeded tandem of Sara Errani and Roberta Vinci will defend its title in the women's doubles final against a formidable Russian duo—No. 4 seeds Ekaterina Makarova and Elena Vesnina.
