Analysis: Aussie up to sixth in live rankingsMarc McGowan in London: A largely impressive performance from Alex de Minaur, who moves into his maiden Wimbledon quarter-final after having to fight hard at the finish to see off Frenchman Arthur Fils. He wasn’t perfect and wobbled with the finish line in sight for a second-straight match, but this is the continuation of an outstanding season for Demon. He moves to No.6 in the live rankings and now awaits either Novak Djokovic or Holger Rune in what will be the biggest match of his life.

The Australian is victorious, but he’s not moving well. De Minaur has injured something - maybe aggravated a muscle. On the TV broadcast, there’s chatter about his ankle however.
In the post-match on-court interview, de Minaur is asked about his condition and his reaction after the final point. “I’ll be alright,” de Minaur said. “I’ll find a way [to be fit for the quarter-final].”
