Nadal and Novak Djokovic were in contention for the world No. 1 ranking. Nadal retained the top ranking by defending the title.

This edition of the tournament saw the top four seeds advance to the semifinals. Federer ended Djokovic's 43-match winning streak dating back to the 2010 Davis Cup Finals, as well as his 41–0 unbeaten 2011 season. Djokovic was only one win away from tying John McEnroe's 1984 record for the best unbeaten start to a season.

Although this was Nadal's sixth title at the French Open, it was the first time since 2001 in which the top seed won the title.[1]
