Rafael Nadal Shocked by Gilles Muller in 5-Set Thriller at 2017 Wimbledon
JULY 11, 2017
Gilles Muller shocked the tennis world by beating an in-form Rafael Nadalin the round of 16 at the 2017 Wimbledon Championships on Monday, defeating the two-time champion 6-3, 6-4, 3-6, 4-6, 15-13 to reach the quarter-finals.
Nadal's enthralling run of form in 2017 came to a screeching halt due to a ferocious performance from his Luxembourger foe, who survived a tug-of-war that lasted four hours and 50 minutes to clinch just his second major quarter-final.
Marin Cilic awaits Muller in the next round after he trounced Nadal's Spanish compatriot Roberto Bautista Agut, 6-2, 6-2, 6-2, on Manic Monday.
Nadal maintained his composure even after such an agonising defeat:
