Not his foot. Seems to be something in his abdomen.
Warning for Rafa: playing Taylor Fritz is hazardous to your health. This is sad.

Assuming, and it is a big assuming, that Rafa wins this match, that abs injury will really start to hurt when he cools down.
For us that were (wrongfully) under the impression that retirements were on the rise, the fact that he won't is refreshing.

Not looking good for Nadal. I think Fritz will win this fourth set and the match.

I don’t it refreshing to watch someone play injured. Rafa is one of the worst on tour for playing when he shouldn’t, which I think has factored much more into his career than the others in the big 3

He allowed Stan to win his match fair and square, as opposed to with a RET on the side.
I remember when Edberg retired against Lendl at the Aussie open. He felt really bad precisely because he had not been able to play the full match, and denied Lendl of a "proper" win (that concept I would agree with you is sort of passé).
Remember, I am becoming too old for this, and am starting to say things such as "in my days", "when I was young", "I remember when..." (oops, I did just that ). I would like to believe that finishing a match is important.

Re: '22 Wimbledon Day 10 OoP & Discussion
Nadal will likely find a way to win because it's only Fritz, but it doesn't look promising vs Kyrgios not at 100%.

I agree Rafa will pull this out, but Fritz is a way better player than Kyrgios

Fritz is not a mental dwarf. At least, I don't think he has that reputation.
One more set with that pain... I guess I hope you are right this time (@Suliso)

Even during this tournament, you think Fritz is playing better thank Kyrgios?JTContinental wrote: ↑Wed Jul 06, 2022 5:10 pm ?????

Not if you look at their respective A+ games and I think that's what matters in this case.JTContinental wrote: ↑Wed Jul 06, 2022 5:10 pm I agree Rafa will pull this out, but Fritz is a way better player than Kyrgios

Hmmm, we’ll have to agree to disagree there. Kyrgios has played longer, but Fritz has performed better in a shorter amount of time.
