Wimbledon: Fritz Reaches QF As Thompson Retires Injured
Fritz, who arrived in London riding the momentum of a record fourth Eastbourne title, had endured a physically demanding path to the last 16. He survived a five-set battle against Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard in the first round and another marathon against Gabriel Diallo in round two, before defeating Alejandro Davidovich Fokina in four sets. Having already logged nine hours and 43 minutes on court, the 26-year-old spent just 40 minutes in his fourth-round encounter.
Thompson, ranked World No. 44, entered the match with his right leg heavily strapped and visibly struggled with a back issue. The 31-year-old had come through two five-setters and a four-set win over Luciano Darderi to reach the fourth round at Wimbledon for the first time in his career.
