Taylor Fritz has recovered from a mid-match lull during which he was treated by a trainer for a foot problem and reached the Wimbledon semifinals for the first time with a 6-3, 6-4, 1-6, 7-6 (4) victory over Karen Khachanov.

The 27-year-old beat the Russian 6-3, 6-4, 1-6, 7-6 (7-4) to reach the last four and keep his quest alive to become the first American man to win tennis' oldest major tournament in 25 years — Pete Sampras last lifting the SW19 trophy.

The American survived 6-3, 6-4, 1-6, 7-6(4) to make the final four at the world’s most important tennis tournament for the first time.
