- Former world No 1 into the last four for third time
- Confident win over a player 10 years her junior
Simona Halep survived a late, brave fightback from Amanda Anisimova to reach the semi-finals at Wimbledon for the third time with a 6-2, 6-4 victory.
The Romanian, back at SW19 for the first time since she won the title in 2019, led by a set and 5-1 but was buckling when Anisimova had three points to level at 5-5, only for Halep to hold on and take her place in the last four.
