American teenager Iva Jovic has earned her first career victory against a top-five ranked opponent as she battled past compatriot Amanda Anisimova to reach the semi-finals of the Queen's Championships.
The 18-year-old, who had never won a WTA main draw match on grass until this week, produced a fearless display on the slick grass court to beat the second seed and last year's Wimbledon runner-up 6-2, 3-6, 6-3.
Top seed and World No.2 Elena Rybakina also bowed out in London as she lost 7-5, 2-6, 6-4 to British wildcard Katie Boulter, fiance of Australia's No.1 Alex de Minaur, who was busy making his way into the semi-finals of the ATP grass-court tournament in 's-Hertogenbosch in Holland.
