Pained Jordan Thompson must battle uneven odds one more time against in-form powerhouse Taylor Fritz as he seeks to break new ground at Wimbledon - and he's grateful to have Australia's ultimate tennis fighter in his corner.
Back brace-clad 'Thommo' has been struggling with a debilitating sacroiliac joint problem, yet has somehow managed to squeeze into the fourth round for the first time in nine attempts.
On Sunday, fifth seed Fritz awaits him, armed with a record of 73 aces at this edition so far and more grass-court match wins this year (11) than anyone. He's just won a tournament in Stuttgart and his fourth title at Eastbourne, looking a genuine title contender.
