Carlos Alcaraz was struggling with cramps as he lost the third set 1-6 to Novak Djokovic in the semifinal at the French Open on Friday.
Djokovic earlier won the first set easily 6-3, but Alcaraz fought back to take the second set 7-5 before struggling with cramps in the third set.
The young Spaniard has taken a medical timeout after the third set.
Having battled through 59 encounters with Rafael Nadal over 16 years of epic rivalry, Djokovic is facing the Spanish legend's heir apparent Alcaraz in a match laced with era-defining potential.
Djokovic is playing a 45th Grand Slam semifinal; for Alcaraz, it is just his second.
With Roger Federer retired and Nadal nursing a hip injury until next year, 36-year-old Djokovic has the responsibility of preserving the legacy of the 'Big Three'.
