Australian tennis player Jordan Thompson has reached the semi-finals of the grass-court Queen's Club tournament, following a decisive 6-4, 6-3 victory against Taylor Fritz on Friday. This victory marks Thompson's second win over a top-15 opponent this week.

The 30-year-old, who is currently ranked No. 43, capitalized on key errors from Fritz to secure his spot in his first career 500-level semi-final. Thompson, who had not won a tour-level match since April, described his run to the semis as a turnaround after a 'rough run'.

Next, Thompson will face 22-year-old Lorenzo Musetti, who defeated British wild-card entry Billy Harris. Musetti, ranked No. 30, previously ousted second-seeded Alex de Minaur. Despite Harris's loss, he will enter the top 150 in next week's rankings and looks forward to his Wimbledon debut.
