Must See: Nadal gets a little too fired up before match

Rafael Nadal has been cruising through this year’s Wimbledon Championships with ease as he looks to capture his third career Wimbledon title and first since 2013.

On Monday, No. 4 ranked Nadal went up against No. 16 ranked Gilles Müller in the Round of 16 and the 31-year-old got a little too excited before the match and nearly knocked himself right out of it.

As painful as it looked and sounded, Nadal claimed to be alright after smoking his head on the doorframe and proceeded out on the court for the match.
