Sharjah 24 – AFP: Matteo Berrettini's quest to become the first player since Boris Becker in 1985 to win Queen's on debut and then Wimbledon moved a step closer as he beat Felix Augier-Aliassime 6-3, 5-7, 7-5, 6-3 to reach the semi-finals on Wednesday.
The 25-year-old Italian will play Hubert Hurkacz on Friday for a place in the Wimbledon final after the Pole stunned eight-time champion Roger Federer in straight sets earlier on Wednesday.

Berrettini is only the second Italian to reach the last four at Wimbledon -- Nicola Pietrangeli getting to the semi-finals in 1960.
