In search of a ball in the second set against Rafael Nadal, German Zverev sprained his foot.
He screamed out his pain and lay on the ground, forced to break the match and left the arena in a wheelchair.
Today, less than a day after the match, he posted a picture on Instagram where he is on his way to an airplane with crutches in his hands and his right foot in stable protection.
"I'm on my way home now.
Based on the first medical tests, it seems that I have torn off several ligaments in my right foot.
I will fly to Germany on Monday to do further research and decide what is the best and fastest way for me to recover, "he writes.
