The No. 5 seed played against the No. 3 seed and German Alexander Saveliv. The first set had been fiercely fought until the tiebreaker and won 10:8. When the two sides tied at 6:6 in the second set, Saveliv was suspected of spraining his foot. Ankle, fell to the ground in great pain, and finally had to leave the field on crutches. Even if Nadu made the cut, he was still worried. After reaching the men’s singles final, the clay king was only one step away from winning the French Open 14 times. However, he has been plagued by repeated injuries recently. When asked about his opponent’s injury, he felt a lot. He first wished his opponent a speedy recovery, and then “I’d rather lose the final if I could put on new feet. Of course it’s nice to win, but health is more important than anything else,” he said.
Nadu will play against Norway’s Kasperrudi at 9 pm Hong Kong time tomorrow to fight for his 14th French Open title and his 22nd Grand Slam title. The Polish female player Servierda will play the American star Jiaoff at 9 o’clock tonight, competing for the back seat of the women’s singles.
