Cobolli was the first on court and held it together long enough to get over the line in four sets against American Zach Svajda<\/a>. The 24-year-old watched his 5-1 fourth set lead vanish before sealing it in a tiebreak. Afterwards he admitted he was close to needing a fresh pair of shorts if things had got any more tense<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Berrettini\u2019s is a story of passion and perseverance as the 30-year-old has battled one injury after another to return to the last eight at a major for the first time since the 2022 US Open. He came back from 6-3 down in the third set tiebreak en route to a 6-3, 7-6(2), 7-6(6) win over Juan Manuel Cerundolo<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Arnaldi survived a late-night thriller against Frances Tiafoe, somehow recovering from 4-1 double break down in the fourth set before scrambling home 6-4 in the decider<\/a> for a first Grand Slam quarterfinal and his second successive five-set victory. <\/p>\n

Arnaldi has spent 17 hours and 42 minutes on court so far – one hour and 58 minutes longer than any other man has taken to make the quarter-finals at any Grand Slam since the ATP began recording match times in 1991. The Italians are guaranteed at least one semifinalist as the two Matteos square off in the last eight.<\/p>\n

The highest ranked man in the top half of the draw, No.4 seed Felix Auger-Aliassime played his cleanest match of the tournament so far<\/a>, beating Chile\u2019s Alejandro Tabilo in straight sets to book a Wednesday date with Cobolli.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Cobolli was the first on court and held it together long enough to get over the line in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":616804,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[101,118,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-616803","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tennis","tag-sports","tag-tennis","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/616803","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=616803"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/616803\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/616804"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=616803"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=616803"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=616803"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
