In the first semi-final of Roland Garros this year, the “clay king” Rafael Nadal had a duel with junior Alexander Zverev. However, what happened was not really in the imagination of any fan. After the first set was tense and the victory belonged to Nadal with more than 1 and a half hours of playing, the two players continuously won the break in the second set.

Chief Nadal and Zverev both knew how to break each other’s serve games and force the set towards a tie-break. However, in Nadal’s decisive score in game 12, Zverev suffered a severe injury that made him hold his ankle in pain.

It was a situation where the German star tried to save the ball with a forehand but the ball went out, and Zverev’s ankle was seriously injured. The medical team was there in time to help Zverev calm down, but the player born in 1997 still burst into tears and had to leave the court in a wheelchair.

Nadal also expressed regret for Zverev’s injury situation and he had words of encouragement for the junior. “It’s an unfortunate situation, I’m sad for him. Zverev is playing impressively in this tournament and I know he’s fighting for the Grand Slam title. I’m sure he’ll come back strong. and I wish Zverev all the best,” said Nadal after the match.

The final victory is counted for Nadal, but what fans care about right now is probably Zverev’s injury condition when it is likely that the world No. 3 player will need a long time to recover.
