Read our privacy policy Alex De Minaur played down injury fears after he reached the Wimbledon quarter-finals for the first time and is happy to be an honorary Briton for the rest of the tournament. “Yeah, definitely over the years I’ve learnt a lot more about the British culture thanks to Katie.” De Minaur, into the last 16 for a fourth consecutive grand slam, raced into a two-set lead before he was broken twice by a pumped up Fils to force a fourth set. I’m glad I didn’t make that same mistake today.” De Minaur will face Novak Djokovic in the quarter-finals after the seven-time champion raced past 15th seed Holger Rune 6-3 6-4 6-2. It sent Musetti through to a maiden grand slam quarter-final and made it three Italians overall in the last eight at Wimbledon with Jannik Sinner and women’s seventh seed Jasmine Paolini progressing on Sunday.
