		</div><p>Richard Gasquet dumped French Open champion Stan Wawrinka out of Wimbledon in a gruelling five-set quarter-final to book a last-four meeting with Novak Djokovic.</p>
<p>Gasquet forced a thrilling match into five sets, only to slip up when serving for the match – but the undeterred 21st seed recovered his poise to move past his 30-year-old Swiss opponent.</p>
<p>Gasquet booked his first Wimbledon semi-final since 2007 with a 6-4 4-6 3-6 6-4 11-9 win in a vintage battle that gripped the Court One crowd.</p>
<p>France&#8217;s world number 20 admitted he had to come through several big tests of nerve to book just the third grand slam semi-final of his career.</p>
<p>The 29-year-old from Beziers will now take on top seed Djokovic in Friday’s last-four match-up, conceding the defending champion will enter their clash as hot favourite.</p>
<p>“I really wanted to win; it’s a quarter-final and a big match against Stan,” said Gasquet.</p>
<p>“I kept fighting and I’m really pleased to do it. I was very aggressive, and of course it’s a great battle, and to win, it’s wonderful.</p>
<p>“It was tough for me that last set, but it was great to come through. I will be happy with how I played today and I will try to do the same again against Novak.</p>
<p>“He will be the favourite of the match, everyone knows that. He’s the best player in the world, and I will try my best.”</p>
