German Olympic tennis singles champion Alexander Zverev's expulsion from the Mexican Open in Acapulco for his foul-mouthed tantrum was deserved said Spanish legend Rafael Nadal. Nadal -- playing his first tournament since he became the record holder for Grand Slam singles titles when he won the Australian Open last month -- added it was not the 'Sascha' (Zverev) he knew and with whom he has good relations. World number three Zverev smashed his racket several times against the umpire Alessandro Germani's chair and delivered a foul mouthed rant at the official after he and partner Marcelo Melo had lost Tuesday's doubles match.
