Nadal does not know if he will be in the Wimbledon semifinals

22-time Grand Slam winner Rafael Nadal is not yet sure if he will be able to compete in the semi-finals of the Wimbledon tennis championship on Friday due to an abdominal wall injury.

On Wednesday, the 36-year-old star crushed the American Taylor Fritz in a five-set battle lasting 4 hours and 20 minutes, but he had to be nursed several times. He was given anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving medicine, while his father and sister from the box were gesticulating violently, encouraging him to give up the match.

"There are more important things in life than winning at Wimbledon, namely health. I hate to give up a match, so I tried to continue. We'll see how things go, now I have medical tests and at the moment I can't answer whether I'll be there in the semi-finals "If I said yes, and then it didn't happen, I'd be a liar," declared the Mallorcan classic.

Nadal, who won his first two GS tournaments of the year, won at Roland Garros in June by constantly receiving anesthetic injections into the nerves in his left leg due to Müller-Weiss syndrome, a rare deformity of the metatarsal bone. In June, he underwent a special radio frequency therapy in Barcelona, thanks to which the paralyzed nerves in the legs cannot transmit pain signals to the brain.

The 2008 and 2010 champion of the English grass-court tournament will face Australian Nick Kyrgios for the final on Friday.
