He couldn't get up.

He was really screaming." The 25-year-old left the court in a wheelchair before returning to the court on crutches, informing the umpire he could no longer continue. In a video message on Twitter, Zverev said: “A very difficult moment for me today on the court. “Obviously a fantastic match until what happened, happened.

But the medical team and the doctors are still checking on it.” It had been a pulsating semi-final up until that point with the score at 7-6 (8) 6-6 in Nadal’s favour, before Zverev withdrew.
