Because of Rafael Nadal Wimbledon Organisers Have Performed a U-turn on ticket sales as they promise to refund fans
Rafael Nadal has pulled out of the tournament due to injury, meaning there will only be one men’s semi-final.
Nadal announced the decision late on Thursday at a press conference. The Spaniard suffered an abdominal tear during his quarter-final win over Taylor Fritz 24 hours earlier.
Nadal dug deep and won in a fifth set tie-break. But that turned out to be his final appearance in the tournament.
The semi-final against Nick Kyrgios was set to be the second match on Centre Court on Friday. But Kyrgios has now been given a walkover into Sunday’s final.

Novak Djokovic will play British No 1 Cameron Norrie in the other semi-final. It was reported after Nadal spoke to the media that fans would not be given any money back.
That was because there will still be a full programme on Centre Court. However, organisers have now reversed their decision.
