Medvedev makes first Wimbledon quarterfinal after Lehecka quits FMTNews FMTSports

LONDON: World No 3 Daniil Medvedev reached his first Wimbledon quarterfinal today when Czech opponent Jiri Lehecka retired with an injury.

Medvedev was 6-4, 6-2 ahead when his 37th-ranked opponent, who had needed a medical timeout for a right foot injury, retired from their Court 1 clash. Former US Open winner Medvedev will face either Stefanos Tsitsipas, the Greek world No 5, or unseeded Christopher Eubanks of the US for a place in the semifinals.

“I saw that his movement was restricted but I didn’t see that it was causing any real trouble,” said Medvedev.“I had no choice but to keep battling until the last point. I feel sorry for Jiri. Hopefully he’ll recover and play at many more Grand Slams.”
