Rafael Nadal was in deep trouble when rain interrupted his French Open quarter-final against Argentinian Diego Schwartzman today.
The 10-time champion trailed the 11th seed 6-4, 3-2 having just dropped his serve on Court Philippe Chatrier.
The 32-year-old Nadal also had both of his wrists bandaged after the opening set, the first he had lost at the tournament since 2015 after winning 37 in a row.
