WATCH: Konta falls hard in win over Kerber

The Brit got up to finish the match, but the impact was intense.

Published Jun 29, 2017

In Eastbourne on Thursday, Johanna Konta suffered a tremendous fall on match point against world No. 1 Angelique Kerber. She stayed down for a long few moments, and received medical attention, before soldiering on.

Konta would win the next two points to close out the win, 6-3, 6-4.

The Brit suffered a splits-type fall on a match point earlier in the same game:

But it was the second fall that nearly took her out:

You can't blame Konta for her lack of solid footing. She was playing her second difficult match of the day, having outlasted Jelena Ostapenko in the third round, 7-5, 3-6, 6-4.
