The city of Paris paid tribute to Spanish tennis great Rafael Nadal on Monday, a day after he won his record-extending 11th French Open title.

Hours after thrashing Austria's Dominic Thiem in straight sets, Nadal was playfully quizzed by Paris Mayor Anne Higaldo about a potential 12th French Open title, reports Efe. Nadal replied modestly, saying "We'll see what may happen next year. Now, we cannot think that hard. We have to be satisfied with what happened, and when time has passed we'll start thinking again about what might happen next year."
