"Nine-time winner Rafael Nadal has pulled out of the French Open because of a wrist injury.The Spaniard had progressed to the third round with a straight-sets win over Facundo Bagnis on Thursday - his 200th Grand Slam victory.
"Yesterday I played with an injection," the 29-year-old told a news conference on Friday.
"Yesterday evening I started to feel more and more pain and today I felt I could not move my wrist.""Comment -
The implications of this will be interesting. Djokovic will now move into around $1.50- $1.60 imo, Thiem into around $25, Tsonga $40. Other side not really that affected I imagine because either way, they're likely to play the Djoker. Loving my futures that I placed now, cashout is going to skyrocket.Comment -
Good news for Djoker futures holders, at least I hope so.Comment -
Djokovic $1.45, Thiem $17, Tsonga $51, other half not affected for obvious reasons.Comment -
After the Sharapova shenanigans anyone think this is more then meets the eye?
Seems to be less of a surprise to him then he led onComment -
Rafael Nadal pulls out of French Open with wrist injury
Hope nobody had Nadal futures.Comment -
Probably wouldn't have beaten Djokovic but he'd been playing better of late. Would've been interesting to see him make a run.Comment -
Doesn't matter, he wasn't winning it anyway. Guy has declined so much I wonder if he thinks about retiring soon. too many injuries and Djoker has his number so he's not going to be #1 againComment -
Nadal lost to murray on clay a couple weeks ago. on fuccing clay, which is his best surface and murrays worst
guy is finishedComment -
Murray will be your winner of this tournamentComment -
i got him at +800Originally posted by jjgold
would be nice.Comment -
Nobody playing better than MurrayComment -
Seriously ? He almost his first two matches to like +10000 dogs. In both matches he was at ~EV live.Originally posted by jjgoldComment -
curious, are Nadal futures voided or losses?Comment -
Another quiet suspension?Originally posted by Jeff_BlackComment -
Have to be losses Id imagine.Originally posted by pattymayoComment -
The only other guy that can win if he stays on top of his game is stand the manComment -
Woo Woo..My gasquet and Tsonga futures are looking better!! And granollers should send Rafa a fruit basket for allowing him to rise 11 rankings positions and about 70,000
Comment -
Gasquet and Tsonga have no shot
Two players that are very limited in how far they can go in a tournamentComment -
Granny has had his share of retirements himself.Comment -
comments from French ex- minister of sport comes to mind...That Nadal might be juicing.Originally posted by Jeff_Black
after hearing what happened with Lepchenko, everything is possible.Comment -
If his wrist has been so bad, why was he playing in the earlier clay tournaments? Wouldn't you rest it for the French Open???Comment -
he could have won thisComment -
I know he had garbage opponents early but to still beat them easily was my surprise that he had been playing injured those games.Originally posted by FoxMulder
The latest mail I have heard from that court case is Nadal is 100% certain he will win it and any money he wins in damages he's giving to charity. Not that that means much.Comment -
No it would've been a massive massive massive longshot go look at past winners the same few guys every year

guys body has taken a beating, probably the most physical player on the entire planet. Guy hates losing practice points even, wants to win every point and gives it his all. I miss the young and fresh Nadal in his capris. Damn time flies. He has lost power and speed due to age and combine it with the injuries.Comment
