It’s time for today’s headline clash. This head to head could well be a fixture in the latter stage of the majors in the years to come. It’s No.2 seed Daniil Medvedev up against No.5 seed Stefanos Tsitsipas.

GAME, SET AND MATCH! – TSITSIPAS 6-3 7-6 7-5 MEDVEDEV. That’s astonishing. Just when you think Medvedev’s antics can’t get more entertaining or bizarre. He lets a 40-0 lead slip and faces match point when Tsitsipas picks him off at the net following a drop shot. The Russian throws in an underarm serve and the Greek charges in to lash the winner down the line. He turns in delight and fist pumps to his team. There's barely an exchange at the net. Tsitsipas thoroughly deserves the win that he achieved in an eventful two hours and 19 minutes. He’ll now meet Zverev in the last four.

That particular shot has reaped plenty of rewards as he's grown as a force in this contest.

TSITSIPAS 6-3 7-6 2-2 MEDVEDEV. This time Tsitsipas goes on the charge and it’s Medvedev who produces his very best when he needs it most.

TSITSIPAS 6-3 7-6 2-1 MEDVEDEV. It’s an excellent return game from Medvedev but he just can’t crack the Tsitsipas code. He lures a backhand long to earn another break point but then undoes some fine work with an overcooked return at a key moment. Stef produces clutch serving from deuce and gets out of dodge. Medvedev has taken just one of the five BPs he’s created. Will he end up ruing that poor conversion rate or will his pressure eventually pay off?

TSITSIPAS 6-3 7-6 1-0 MEDVEDEV. Tsitsipas attempts a half volley at 30-0 that hits the frame of his racket and he drops back to human mode.

TSITSIPAS 6-3 5-6 MEDVEDEV. Wow, what a shot! Medvedev plays a hot dog lob that clips the baseline and follows up with an emphatic smash to romp through a love hold.
