Flavio Cobolli and Matteo Arnaldi have ensured there will be an Italian man in the French Open final after they won their quarter-finals in contrasting fashion.
Cobolli started slowly in wild and windy conditions on Wednesday before beating Canadian fourth seed Felix Auger-Aliassime 4-6 6-4 6-4 6-4 to reach the semi-finals at Roland Garros for the first time.
Arnaldi then made it to his first grand slam semi after compatriot Matteo Berrettini retired from their quarter-final because of injury.
