Taylor Fritz has made history by reaching the Wimbledon semifinals for the first time, a feat not achieved by an American man in this Grand Slam tournament since John Isner in 2018.
In a match filled with suspense and drama, Fritz, the No. 5 seed, overcame a malfunction with Wimbledon’s electronic line calling system to defeat the No. 17-seeded Karen Khachanov in a four-set thriller. The final score of 6-3, 6-4, 1-6, 7-6 (7-4) sealed Fritz’s spot in the semifinals.
Now, the stage is set for an epic showdown as Fritz prepares to face two-time defending champion Carlos Alcaraz, the No. 2 seed, in the grass court semifinal.
In the women’s side of the tournament, another American making headlines is No. 13 seed Amanda Anisimova. She secured her spot in the semifinals by defeating Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova 6-1, 7-6 (11-9). Anisimova will face No. 1 seed Aryna Sabalenka on Centre Court in Thursday’s semifinal match. Sabalenka rallied to beat Laura Siegemund 4-6, 6-2, 6-4 in their quarterfinal match.
Anisimova is seeking to become the first American woman to win Wimbledon since Serena Williams won the last of her seven titles there in 2016. Sabalenka, who won Australian Open titles in 2023 and 2024 and the US Open in 2024, is also seeking to win Wimbledon for the first time. Sabalenka lost in the final of the French Open to American Coco Gauff last month.
