Ivan Lendl defeated John McEnroe in the final, 3–6, 2–6, 6–4, 7–5, 7–5 to win the men's singles tennis title at the 1984 French Open. It was his first major title. It was also McEnroe's first defeat of the season, and his only final appearance at the clay courts of the French Open. The defeat also ended McEnroe's 42-match match winning streak, the best ever unbeaten start to a season.^[1][2] The final is considered one of the greatest matches ever played.^[3][4]
