Alkras, who celebrated his 19th birthday yesterday, has never beaten Nadal, until tonight.

The young tennis player surprisingly sailed to 2: 6 in the first set, but Nadal did not say desperate and responded with 1: 6 that sent the quarterfinals to the third and final set.

One break, in which Alkras went up to 1: 3, was enough for him to secure the victory on the way to 3: 6 in the campaign and 1: 2 in the entire match.



The young Spaniard will meet in the semifinals the world number one, Novak Djokovic, who did not have much difficulty on the way to 3: 6, 4: 6 over the Polish Hubert Horkach.

In the other quarterfinals, Andrei Rublev will face Stefanos Tsitsipas and Sasha Zebrav will face Felix Uja Eliasim.
