The Australian attempt to maintain a women's finals streak that dated back more than half-a-century at Queen's is over, but one Australian is happy about that.
In normal circumstances Alex de Minaur, the Australian men's No.1, would be expected to back Ajla Tomljanovic, but not when she's playing his fiancee, British No.1 Katie Boulter.
On a court he knows very well having reached the men's final in 2023, Boulter put the watching de Minaur through the wringer as she battled past Tomljanovic despite losing more games.
