Lorenzo Musetti celebrated the best day of his tennis life after triumphing in Wimbledon’s latest five-set rollercoaster to reach his first grand slam semi-final.

All the hype going into the tournament was around another 22-year-old Italian, Jannik Sinner, but it is Musetti rather than the world number one who is now within two victories of the trophy after a 3-6 7-6 (5) 6-2 3-6 6-1 win over Taylor Fritz.
