Nadal goes & packs Zverev’s bag - the man is just all class. Horrible ending to a really up & down match. As a Nadal fan I am glad he is through but never want it like this. Best wishes to Sascha on his recovery - really hope it isn’t as serious as it looks!

What a tragic end to this intense game. Zverev's screams are still ringing in my ears, one can only hope that it will at least be enough for the US Open in August. You don't even want to imagine how long this match would have went on. I can't remember the last time they hit the three hours mark before the end of the second set.

Do you think it was a problem with the court like a hole or a rock, or Zverev's shoes grip the clay too hard, or what happened? You see these devastating ankle injuries on hard courts where profi shoes just bite themselves into the surface and stop mid slide, but on clay it is so unusual, especially when Zverev didnt do anything wrong, he chased a tough ball, started sliding a little and suddenly the shoe stops dead in its tracks and the whole body goes over, probably tearing his ankle tendons and ligaments to pieces. If it is a sprained ankle, he is back for Wimbledon. If he tore his ankle apart, he will be lucky to play next year's Australian open, as that means surgery, 6 months rehab before he can train 100%, and a couple more months getting his tennis mojo back. Heck even Federer underwent a knee surgery right after Wimbledon and everybody was surprised he healed and got ready for AO 2017 that he won despite all ods.

I've been Rafa's fan for 17 years but I would never ever want to finish match like this. Sasha left everything on court so it seems really unfair to leave the court like he did. Life can sometimes put some obstacles in front of us and it's full of highs and lows but we need to stay resistant. I can still hear Sasha's scream echoing in my ears but I believe he's gonna be back soon at his absolute best fighting as a champ. I just wish him a speed recovery! And I also feel bit sad that Rafa could not celebrate a proper victory but I believe he's gonna do the big one on Sunday. He's just such a world class on and off court. Well done! '

Zverev played an incredible Tournament, hope he get well soon ...

So unlucky not just for this important match but for the challenges he has to face to fully recover, hoping this injury is not as bad as it looks. Get well soon Zverev and I have no doubts you will win several slams despite this injury.

So so sorry for Sasha. One thing that got me annoyed was his coaches reactions of disappointment. If I had been his coach I would have been straight down there. Loved the fact that nadal walked back out with him and then to pack his kit up for him just shows what an amazing guy nadal is

This hurts to see since both played an amazing match. I am by no means a fan of a specific player at all, but the sportsmanship of both here, is amazing. Zverev coming back to withdraw, Nadal picking the bag… gave me goosebumps.

So unlucky i hope he wins a grand slam he deserves it

Zverev has been playing so well this RG, and so composed and focused, as I've hardly seen him in the past, like he is finally maturing. I was enjoying so much watching him play, and this is such an unfair and terrible way to end this tournament. I hope he will be OK for the grass season, but I doubt it.

Un abrazo muy fuerte desde españa a zverev. Ojala no sea nada y lo veamos en winbledon. Vamos rafa!!!!! Que lastima. Nos estabais haciendo disfrutar muchisimo.

Let's begin with Nadal looking seriously concerned. He does not want to win like this. He has proven to be a class act and a good sportsman for years now. And he knows, how heartbreaking it is, to leave the court with an injury and how hard it is, to come back from any injury. I do hope, he wins it all, however.

Nadal looked absolutely concerned! I think he‘d rather won the Match in a regular way!

You could sense that it wasnt meant to be. A racket slipped out of his hand on deuce 4-3 in the first, got broken, had 6-2 in the tiebreak and lost the set, 5-3 in the 2nd made 3 double faults. And then this. Rafa was on ropes the entire 3 hours

To cry like this man... not the best moment for him.

That's terrible. The Paris clay court including Wimbledon are very slippery and dangerous courts.

I mean i had the same injury at age 14 and I didn't cry. In my opinion he didn't cry over the injury more so over the fact that he didn't make it to the finals. That's how they earn millions, injuries are part of the life of a professional sportsman. The moment sucks but it isn't as bad of an injury as it looked. Trust me I tore my Achilles once playing basketball and I felt like i was dieing on the basketball court, hearing that "pop" sound, a pain you can't even imagine if you haven't experienced it and knowing this is most likely the end of your career. Sashas injury is nothing like that so dont worry. With this injury here Sasha will still have a smile on his face when he sees his paycheck. He ll come back and win Roland Garros like he s supposed to with his talent. He ll have a bright future, don't worry

I tore all my ligaments in the left ankle 2 months ago. Thursday i played football again. I had tears in my eyes when i saw him rolling on the ground. I remembered the pain and the wait. I hope he recovers well and is 100% for US Open.

very sorry to see this, he is brilliant and young, sure that he'll be ok and come back to courts as soon as possible.

He honestly played a phenomenal tournament and for this to happen to him in such a crucial moment for his career... I hope for a speedy recovery, he should be back for US Open if things are not worse than we've seen. I know how severe this injury is, I broke my ankle, had to stay 6 months in rehab and painkillers and a lot of physio recovery and I am not a professional athlete like him. He will be back in 3-4 months at most. He's a fighter!

All the best to Zverev! He's my favorite player

Pues te lo digo yo que jugando baloncesto me he hecho unos cuantos. En concreto dos como ese, tobillo en 90 grados, te quieres morir. Me he roto huesos y prefiero eso antes que un esguince de ese grado, 2º o 3º grado. Si quieres ahora no leas porque te voy a decribir la sensación. No te das cuenta al momento, sientes que se desgarra el tejido interno, calor, frio y un dolor al segundo. También notas como cruje, como si se hubiese roto algún hueso, luego el dolor es inmediato, paralizante. Se empieza a hinchar y como es una herida por desgarro interna empieza a crearse un hematoma enorme. A eso le sumas la hinchazón, se suele hinchar tanto que no puedes ponerte nada de calzado, ovbiamente no lo necesitas. Es como un melón tu tobillo. Además no puedes ni apollarlo levemente en el suelo porque es como si pisases cristales rotos. Suele durar un mes la recuperación normal en el sistema público, te suelen inmovilizar con una cédula, al menos antes. Y no estás bien hasta que pasan dos meses si no hay que operar que puede ser el caso si hay rotura de ligamentos total. Una desgracia, además nunca se recupera del todo. Ese tobillo ya está jodido de por vida. (si no lo tenía ya tocado de antes). Si te tumbas estás bien pero si bajas el pie al suelo baja la sangre y empieza a hincharse mas y notas el latido del corazón y duele tanto que no aguantas. Si te pones de pie para ir al baño te dan sudores frios, he llegado a mear tumbado en una botella para evitar moverme, a pesar de los analgesicos. Terrible.

Reminds me of what happened to Mattek-Sands

Damn the match was so intense to this point

Zverev ha realizado un torneo extraordinario superó a Alcaraz y tuteo a Nadal hasta la lesión Es evidente que ha alcanzado la madurez.Las lesiones son consustanciales al deporte.Espero que se recupere pronto y le veamos brillar nuevamente porque es evidente que es un rival temible para cualquiera incluidos los tres grandes.

Sarà un caso che zverev si sia fatto male .... Secondo me non proprio.... Quando giochi con uno come Nadal che la mette sulla forza fisica e tu hai un gioco che di basa sulla tecnica.... Bhe puoi andare anche incontro ad infortuni e quindi questa non è sfortuna ma bravura e durezza fisica dell'avversario

Didn't get why the doctor try from the beginning to pull him up...whats the point to rush that? His team looks like "disappointed" cause he got injuried.. they didn't look scared or worried, at all

only i im crying hearing him like that?...😭😭💔

This is definitely extremely sad to see this, from such a high-level match trying to fulfill dreams into an injury within a moment. I think this is the toughest challenge in Sport. I wish him quick recovery and hope this is not a serious injury, the way he played is fully capable to take a grand slam and still has enough time for it.
