A terrible scene unfolded on at Wimbledon on Thursday as Bethanie Mattek-Sands suffered a serious knee injury on court. Right in the middle of her match against Sorana Cirstea , Mattek-Sands’s right knee buckled as she charged the net and the court microphones picked up the sound of her yelling “Help me, someone help me, please.” as she awaited medics to come assist her.

Mattek-Sands on the ground and still in distress. Her doubles partner Lucie Safarova has arrived courtside and is understandably emotional.
