It was a great match Nadal up 7-6, 5-6 40-30 and Zverev had a serious ankle (?) injury and it looks like it's going to be a default.

damn shame....what a match. Zverev was showing a lot, and Rafa was Rafa. Think Z is done for a while...

It was dreadful.
Rafa broken a zillion times and Zverev breaking himself a zillion times. It was like watching a WTA match.
And the conditions were awful. Looked like they were playing in a sauna. Even I was sweating just watching it.
Hate to see it end with an injury, but as a tennis fan Im glad I didnt have to watch 3+ more sets of this match.

Rafa was sweating so much he couldn't even put the extra ball in his pockets.
