Do we know the extent of Zverevs' injury?? looked horrific. Class from the man to make it back on to court to thank the fans too. No surprise either, but pure class from Rafa throughout even staying with Zverev until he left - presumably for scans - (the appearance of a moon boot is rarely a good sign) - My god how some other sportsmen could learn a lesson from Rafa.

Zveverev has torn several lateral ligaments in his right foot. Which doesn't sound nice, to be honest, and hopefully we will see him play again in US, but a lot depends on recovery time and I guess it means he is out of Wimbledon.

Rafa is one of those rare sporting icons who shows respect to his opponents and when something like that happens is always there to help. I respect him more after this. Just shows how humble he really is.
