NOVAK DJOKOVIC reached his 10th semifinal at Wimbledon and 41st at a major tournament with a straight-set victory over unseeded Marton Fucsovics on Wednesday.

Djokovic won 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 on a windy, cloudy afternoon at Center Court to continue his pursuit of a sixth championship at the All England Club

He will face Canada’s 10th seed Denis Shapovalov, who beat Russia’s Karen Khachanov 6-4, 3-6, 5-7, 6-1, 6-4, for a place in Sunday’s final.

The victory for Djokovic was his 100th on a grass court. He became only the third man to capture all four majors more than once with his second French Open victory last month.

Now he is halfway to becoming the first man in the Open Era and only the third in history to complete a calendar Grand Slam of all four majors.

“Sometimes things do look surreal for me but I try to live in the moment and take every opportunity I have on the court,” said Djokovic.

Djokovic raced into a 5-0 lead in the first set before 29-year-old Fucsovics got on the board.

The world number 48, bidding to become the first Hungarian man since 1948 to make the semifinals at Wimbledon, saved five set points.

However, the rearguard action was too late to prevent the champion edging ahead.

The top seed broke for the only time in the second set in the ninth game, which was enough for a two-set lead.

Meanwhile, Roger Federer faced serious questions over his future Wednesday after crashing out of Wimbledon in the quarterfinals, just five weeks shy of his 40th birthday.

Eight-time Wimbledon champion Federer lost 6-3, 7-6 (7/4), 6-0 to Poland’s Hubert Hurkacz, a player 15 years his junior.

The defeat was only Federer’s 14th at Wimbledon in 119 matches and his first straight-sets loss since an opening round exit against Mario Ancic in 2002.(SD-Agencies)
