Novak Djokovic recovers from losing the first set to beat Andrey Rublev on Centre Court and reach the semi-finals.
Svitolina will meet unseeded Czech Marketa Vondrousova, who also caused an upset by beating American fourth seed Jessica Pegula 6-4 2-6 6-4. Ukrainian wildcard Elina Svitolina stunned world number one Iga Swiatek to reach the Wimbledon semi-finals, winning 7-5 6-7 (5-7) 6-2 just three months after returning to the tour following the birth of her daughter late last year. While we wait for reaction from Novak Djokovic, here's a quick recap of the headlines from day nine at Wimbledon: It's only going to get tougher I know that but I like the way I played today, the energy on the court also, so hopefully I can have another win in a few days' time." All I'm thinking about is directing my attention to my next match. "That's all I'm thinking about right now.
It's a tournament that is active for me and I'm still in it. Especially during the tournament, I don't like to spend too much time thinking about statistics. "In terms of the numbers, thank you for bringing them up but they're just numbers at the end of the day. On matching Roger Federer's record of reaching 46 Grand Slam semi-finals: I have to congratulate him for a great match today and a great tournament.
"It's kind of scary, both the ball that is coming from the corner and the sound as well! Obviously he is someone that has been around the top 10 for quite a few years and I wish him the best of luck. You can see by the way he is grunting after his shots, especially on the forehand. Obviously he brings a lot of intensity on the court.
