Wimbledon: Djokovic and Medvedev in the quarters. Tsitsipas surprise knockout

Surprising defeat of Stefanos Tsitsipas in the Wimbledon round of 16. The Greek tennis player was defeated in five sets by U.S. world number 43 Christopher Eubanks. The star athlete won with a score of 3-6, 7-6, 3-6, 6-4, 6-4 at the end of a match that lasted more than three hours. For Tsitsipas, the taboo of the eighth round at Wimbledon remains: he has never made it past them in his career.

Instead, he advanced to the round of 16, with great difficulty, world number two Novak Djokovic, who defeated Poland’s Hurkacz after four tight sets 7-6, 7-6, 5-7, 6-4: In the quarters for the Serb is Andrey Rublev.

He rushed Daniil Medvedev, who took advantage of Czech Lehecka’s withdrawal to save his strength (the forfeit came after the Russian won two sets 6-4, 6-2). In the quarters Medvedev will face Eubanks himself.
