Wimbledon 2022: Rafael Nadal Ignores Body Language as Simona Halep Eyes Semis

News 18  

Rafael Nadal has shrugged off fresh concerns over his fitness as he targets a place in the Wimbledon semi-finals on Wednesday. He is back in the Wimbledon quarter-finals for the first time since 2014, when he made a mockery of his 144 world ranking to stun Nadal. ‘Upset people’ Garin, ranked 43, saved two match points to beat Australia’s Alex de Minaur in a gruelling last-16 tie, which lasted four hours and 34 minutes. In the women’s quarter-finals on Wednesday, 2019 champion Simona Halep tackles Amanda Anisimova of the United States. Anisimova is back in the last eight of a Slam for the first time since making the French Open semi-finals in 2019 after beating Halep in the quarter-finals.
