Hurkacz completes a 5 set victory over Medvedev, winning the final set 6-3.

QF line-up :

(1) Djokovic vs Fucsovics
(20) Khachanov vs (10) Shapovalov
(7) Berrettini vs (16) Auger-Aliassime
(6) Federer vs (14) Hurkacz


 SO, Djoko versus Shapovalov and Berrettini versus Hurkacz. 

 

I just can't see Shapo beating Djoko in a slam semi, not yet, see a straight sets win. The other match intrigues me, I am favouring Berrettini but reckon we could see 5 sets there possibly

 I'm so torn on the 2nd match, wondered off to watch Musetti play Hurkacz last Tuesday, came away a big Murkacz fan but I think realistically Berrettini has a better chance of beating Djokovic so if Shapo can't do the lords work I'll hope for a Berrettini win and a Djokovic/Berrettini final and if Shapo does win then a Shapo/Hurkacz final

Not keen on Djoko taking the trophy if it cant be a Brit, then Berrettini gets my vote smile


I'll second that!    I felt a bit dismissive about him when I saw that he was going to be the top seed at Queen's, but I was impressed by what I saw of him there & charmed by his very likeable personality in his on-court interviews.


 Still hoping for Berrettini to win on Sunday  smile

You & I both, though I could live with a Shapo victory - ABD.   wink

Hopefully Djoko doesn't read this forum (Highly unlikely!)
I'm in the ABD camp too!

Very muted applause at the end of the tie-break.  I wonder if the crowd feels the same way....

Swear Shapovalov was trained on a court with no lines or net
