“He deserved the victory, he was the better player.” Nigeria

The 21-year-old has now defeated all the “Big Three” this year — Djokovic, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal — and faces another major talent in his Saturday semi-final against 23-year-old Daniil Medvedev.

“He deserved the victory, he was the better player,” said the 32-year-old Serbian, who had looked imperious up until now.“I lacked that little bit of dynamic movement and acceleration in my shots. After a dreadful start, Tsitsipas found his feet in the second set, winning on a tie break, then went 3-1 up in the decider when Djokovic planted his forehand wide on the third break point.

Medvedev — another of the next generation — sent down 12 aces to help see off Fognini and said: “I don’t know what happened, my serve was crushing it.”
