Zverev undergoes surgery on torn ligaments I Wimbledon 'out of the question'

Alexander Zverev has undergone surgery on torn ligaments in his right ankle, with his brother Mischa raising major doubts that he will be ready in time for Wimbledon.

The German world No 3 was forced to retire from his French Open semi-final against Nadal last week.

Zverev fell and twisted his ankle at the end of the second set at Roland Garros, yelling in pain as Nadal rushed around the net to help.

The German was helped to his feet but taken off the court in a wheelchair for treatment.

After five minutes, the 25-year-old re-emerged on crutches to inform the umpire that he could not continue.

Zverev has now confirmed he has had surgery on the injury but has not placed a time frame on his return.
