Ostapenko becomes 1st Latvian woman to reach Wimbledon semifinal

Jelena Ostapenko became the first Latvian woman to reach a Wimbledon semifinal with a 7-5, 6-4 victory over Dominika Cibulkova.

In a match that featured eight breaks of serve - four in the first five games - Ostapenko was able to elevate her game in the crucial moments.

She was the aggressor throughout, hitting 33 winners to Cibulkova's six, but also doubling her opponent's unforced error count.

In 2017, Ostapenko followed up her maiden Grand Slam title at the French Open by reaching the last eight at Wimbledon - making her the only woman apart from Serena Williams to have achieved that feat in the past decade.

Ostapenko will next face two-time Grand Slam champion and former Wimbledon runner-up Angelique Kerber.
