Bad bad news from Alexander Zverev‘s camp in Halle.
The German sensation had a good start of his campaign in Germany after he defeated Robin Haase 6-4 7-5. However, the world no.5 had to withdraw from playing the doubles with his brother Mischa because of a knee injury.
According to reports, the German was seen limping in the morning with a tape on his knee.
Sascha is meant to face Steve Johnson in the 2nd round.
Bad news for Zverev. https://t.co/jUw5Hd1DFA

Alexander Zverev has bandaged his thigh and calf, probably won’t participate at the doubles match against Struff/McLachlan. ☹️ https://t.co/8JLzg0Thnt

Big fall from Zverev in Halle. Boy he’s flexible because that right knee twist in slow mow looked bad. Had the trainer out for a bleeding left knee. Looks fine now.

A set up but a break down, Alexander #Zverev takes a spill on the grass.
He’s quickly surrounded by concerned officials/ballkids & his opponent Robin #Haase. He’s bloodied his knee but let’s hope it’s no worse.
