It left seasoned press corps wondering if they were indeed in the right room. The Aussie, ranked 40, will play Chile’s Cristian Garin on Wednesday in the only seedless last-eight clash of the men’s singles draw.
The enigmatic Australian stunned the tennis world as a 19-year-old in 2014 when he beat then world number one Rafael Nadal on his way to the Wimbledon quarter-finals.

Former skipper Root and Jonny Bairstow smashed unbeaten centuries against India to chase down 378 and win the fifth Test by seven wickets on Tuesday. That series-levelling victory was England's highest successful run-chase and another example of the swashbuckling style of play that has become the hallmark of England's new era under Stokes and coach Brendon McCullum.
cricket would be played. Martin Crowe figured that the first 15 overs of the game against the new ball was the time to attack with the bat, a theory that stunned the cricket world and took the Kiwis to the semis, till they were stopped by Inzamam ul Haq. Cut to 2015 ODI World Cup and here was Brendon McCullum, nicknamed Baz, who was hell-bent on bringing about another change.
Well that might be the conclusion of some fans who watched a resurgent England make light of a chase of 378 in the Covid-delayed fifth Test against India. It was the latest example of 'Bazball' in action, with a seven-wicket win in Birmingham England's fourth successful chase in as many Tests under a new leadership duo of coach Brendon McCullum and captain Ben Stokes following a 3-0 whitewash of Test world champions New Zealand.
