Jo-Wilfried Tsonga close to tears as injury threatens final match of career at French Open
Jo-Wilfried Tsonga was left close to tears as his back injury came back to haunt him in what was the final match of his career. The former world No 5 is retiring at the French Open and was serving for the fourth set against eighth seed Casper Ruud when he appeared unable to serve and was forced to call the trainer ahead of the fourth set tiebreak. He tried to finish his last ever match but was forced to bring down the curtain on a glittering 18-year career in sad fashion as his opponent won 6-7(8) 7-6(4) 6-2 7-6(0).
