Watch: Goffin Slips On Cover, Forced To Retire
<![CDATA[No. 10-seeded Belgian forced out after tumble.]]>
David Goffin's Roland Garros run ended in the most painful fashion.
Two points from winning the first set against Horacio Zeballos, Goffin was sprinting behind the court, when his right foot stuck in the tarp and he tumbled to the court appearing to injury his right ankle.

The hobbled 2016 quarterfinalist was helped off the court and taken to the training room, but was forced to retire holding a 5-4 lead.
Zeballos, who carried Goffin's Wilson racquet bag off the court and delivered it to the training room where he was receiving treatment, advanced to the fourth round for the first time in 18 Grand Slam appearances. The 65th-ranked Argentine will face either sixth-seeded Dominic Thiem or 25th-seeded Steve Johnson for a spot in the quarterfinals. ]]>OMG… this looks even worse then the images… please be ok… #Goffin #RG17 @rolandgarros pic.twitter.com/GQTo9yCfif
