G.O.A.T.
Director Gilbert Ysen says they will not raise Nadal's ranking according to his previous performances.
"We thought about it," the French Open's tournament director, Gilbert Ysern, told L'Equipe. "We could not not ask the question for a champion like him, who has embodied the tournament for 10 years and only once not won a match. But the circumstances are different."
Circumstances....which means:
"Today, it is his sporting level, it seems, which has fallen. He is not hampered. So, we will not adjust the seedings in his favor."
