LONDON: The unseeded Australian Tennis player Nick Kyrgios carried on his astounding Wimbledon run as he thumped Cristian Garin in a straight-set victory 6-4, 6-3, 7-6 to qualify for the Wimbledon semi-finals for the first time.
The Australian after dropping his serve in the opening game roared back and went on to display a contrasting performance for the rest of the match to seal a comprehensive victory over Garin.
Kyrgios utilized his service skills to the fullest as he claimed a straightforward second set to move within one from the victory.
Fuelled with momentum, the Australian soon pulled ahead in the third set with a dominant early lead of 6-3 to leave himself on the verge of semi-final qualification. Garin, however, did not give up and sealed the next three games to force the match into the tiebreaker.
The Chilean then could not continue his astounding comeback and failed to claim the tiebreaker, allowing Kyrgios to run away with the victory and earned his semi-final spot for the first time.
The Australian will now face the winner of Rafael Nadal and Taylor Fritz’s quarter-final.
