Third Seed Zverev Suffers Ankle Injury, Leaves Court in Wheelchair
Nadal Faces Ruud in Sunday's Final
Rafael Nadal advanced to the final of Roland-Garros for a record 14th time after third seed Alexander Zverev retired with an ankle injury during their semifinal match. Zverev turned his ankle during the second set, and was clearly in pain as he was helped off the court in a wheelchair.
In a social media post, Zverev revealed that he has torn ligaments in his ankle. The German player wrote that he is "devastated" by the injury, and that he will be undergoing surgery in the coming days. Nadal will face eighth seed Casper Ruud in Sunday's final. Ruud defeated 12th seed Andrey Rublev in the other semifinal to reach his first Grand Slam final.
