Lorenzo Musetti has powered his way to victory over Taylor Fritz in Wimbledon's latest five-set rollercoaster to reach his first grand slam semi-final. Italy's world No.1 Jannik Sinner was unable to make it through to the last four on Tuesday but the country's flag is still flying in the men's singles thanks to his compatriot.

Musetti was through to this stage at a slam for the first time but did not let the occasion blunt his wonderfully flamboyant game, riding the peaks and troughs of the Court One encounter to triumph 3-6 7-6 (7-5) 6-2 3-6 6-1. The 22-year-old said: "I probably have no words. It's tough to speak but I'll try. I think I didn't realise yet what I've done. I want to say thanks to all the Italian crowd that's here to support us.
