Righto, that’s it from me – thanks all for your company and comments, and I’ll see you tomorrow for Elina Svitolina v Marketa Vodrousova and Ons Jabeur v Aryna Sabalenka in the women’s semis. I can’t wait! But until then, peace and love.

Alcaraz says it’s a dream to be in the semis of a “beautiful tournament”. He didn’t expect to play such a great level on grass so it’s crazy, and it was tough facing Rune, with whom he’s played doubles and is the same age as him, but “once you get into the quarters, no friends, you have to be focused on yourself, and I think I did great in that part.” He’s just an absolute killer, and asked about his shout of “Vamos!” when winning the first set, he was thinking”pull out all the revs”. He enjoyed the first two sets because of how he played, which put a smile on his face, and will enjoy the moment before preparing for Medvedev.
