Wimbledon: Nadal cruises into quarter-finals while Kyrgios battles to win in five sets
Follow all the action as the singles quarter-finals get underway on Day 9 at Wimbledon. Having ended the fairytale run of Tim van Rijthoven in the fourth round, defending champion Novak Djokovic took on the Italian No 10 seed Jannik Sinner, who defeated Spanish breakthrough star Carlos Alcaraz in the previous round. Sinner surged into a two-set lead on Centre Court but Djokovic fought back to win an epic in five sets - 5-7, 2-6, 6-3, 6-2, 6-2 - as the Serbian kept his hopes of a fourth straight men’s singles title at SW19 alive.
The second men’s quarter-final this afternoon features Cameron Norrie against the world No 58 David Goffin. Norrie is the last Briton standing in either singles draw and is bidding to reach the first grand slam semi-final of his career.
The Centre Court women’s quarter-final sees No 2 seed Ons Jabeur take on Marie Bouzkova. Jabeur is the overwhelming favourite, having yet to drop a set so far. Bouzkova, ranked No 66 in the world, is a somewhat surprising name in the latter stages of the draw but produced an emphatic upset against Caroline Garcia in the fourth round. It is far less of a shock than the first women’s quarter-final that took place today, which was an all-German clash between Tatjana Maria and Jule Niemeier. Maria came back from a set down to win the decider as she triumphed 4-6, 6-2, 7-5 to end the run of 22-year-old Niemeier, who ended Heather Watson’s run, and was making her debut in the main draw.

Cameron Norrie:
“Literally speechless... stayed as patient as I could and just tried to put the ball in the court. Winning a match like this gives me flashbacks to all the pre-seasons and the hard work and it feels pretty good.”
On playing Djokovic: “Enjoy it, take it to him and hopefully you guys can get behind me again! Looking forward to it, can’t enjoy it too much now and just get ready for Novak in a couple of days!”

Wimbledon 2022: Goffin 6-3 5-7 6-2 3-6 5-7 Norrie
GAME, SET AND MATCH CAMERON NORRIE!
A few errors from Goffin on the forehand side brings the score to 30-0 before a wild Norrie forehand and then a forehand into the net makes it very nervy at 30-30.... but Norrie hits an ace down the T!
Match point - and Goffin hits a forehand passing shot winner! To deuce and Goffin hits a forehand long for a second match point and Goffin nets!
A first Wimbledon semi-final for Cameron Norrie! He will play Novak Djokovic on Friday! What a battle after three hours and 28 minutes!

Wimbledon 2022: Goffin 6-3 5-7 6-2 3-6 5-6 Norrie*
NORRIE BREAKS!
What on earth do I know...! Terrific point at 0-15 - with both players volleying at the net - is won by Norrie for 0-30 amid a fever-pitch atmosphere!
Goffin then goes long - twice! - and Norrie breaks to love!
He will serve for a place in the Wimbledon semi-finals!

Wimbledon 2022: *Goffin 6-3 5-7 6-2 3-6 5-5 Norrie
Norrie holds to 15, again very comfortably.
Might be going a bit earlier here but given how easily the two players have held serve in this set, surely a first-to-10 tiebreak beckons...

Wimbledon 2022: Goffin 6-3 5-7 6-2 3-6 5-4 Norrie*
Goffin holds to love - Norrie didn’t have a sniff in that game given the Belgian’s excellent placement on serve.
A game away now is the Belgian - the British No 1 will serve to stay in the match.
A reminder if it goes 6-6, we have a tiebreak to 10 to decide the winner...

Wimbledon 2022: *Goffin 6-3 5-7 6-2 3-6 4-4 Norrie
Big, assured, confident hold from Norrie to 30, particularly the last point as he doesn’t rush on an overhead and a volley. Goffin, valiant in retrieving, can’t force the error.
Back to all-square at 4-4! No breaks of serve yet in this fifth set...
Kieran Jackson5 July 2022 19:05
Wimbledon 2022: Goffin 6-3 5-7 6-2 3-6 4-3 Norrie*
Goffin holds to 15, sealing it after a terrific point to finish!
Nip and tuck, side-to-side, before Norrie eventually nets - almost of exhaustion - with a slice backhand in the service box.
Crunch time now...

Wimbledon 2022: *Goffin 6-3 5-7 6-2 3-6 3-3 Norrie
A hold to love for Cameron Norrie, that’ll do. Crowd are getting ever more vocal as we reach the business end of this final set...
Kieran Jackson5 July 2022 18:57
Wimbledon 2022: Goffin 6-3 5-7 6-2 3-6 3-2 Norrie*
Cries of out at 15-15 for a deep Goffin forehand don’t matter as the Belgian eventually makes an error, but he holds from 15-30 with aplomb - big serving and an impressive overhead to seal it.
Still on serve... it’s getting tense here on Court 1...
