Well, there’s not much left to say. An utterly thrilling end to what has been a fine advertisement for this competition today. With entertainment you’d have to be a curmudgeon not to have enjoyed it.
Australia are through to a Saturday semi-final with either
Belgium or
Spain, who play next up on Ken Rosewall Arena. But for now, from me, that’s all I can take. Thanks for joining today. Look out for Kevin Mitchell’s match report from
Sydney which will be online shortly. Bye for now. 7.01am GMT
“That was the most stressful tie-breaker I’ve ever been involved in,” says Kyrgios. “I’ll definitely be having a couple of red wines tonight.”
De Minaur jokes that Kyrgios “blatantly carried me out there” following his narrow three-and-a-half-hour loss to Dan Evans not half an hour prior.
