Chung has also taken the title for being the world's youngest semi-finalist being 21 years and 254 days old.

Novak Djokovic has been dumped out of the Australian Open. 'It's frustrating when you have that much time and you don't heal properly, ' he said.

Federer revealed that he was impressed with Chung's victory over Djokovic.

"Honestly it's great. I think the people enjoy it too, it's maybe better than the trophy but Norman is a good friend by now". I think in the third set he dropped a little bit.

Cilic is already through to his first ever decider at Melbourne Park after sweeping past Britain's Kyle Edmund in three comfortable sets in his semi-final on Thursday.

As in his fourth round elimination of six-time champion Novak Djokovic, Chung had all the answers against World No. 97 Sandgren, returning virtually everything the battling American could throw at him.

McMaster confirmed that Trump will meet Kagame, according to CNN's Jake Tapper. "Walking into the lion's den is an apt metaphor". With a growth rate above 3 percent and unemployment hovering around 4 percent, the USA economy looks stable.

"He gets balls back and stays aggressive in defence, so I'm really excited to be playing him, he's got nothing to lose, I will tell myself the same and we'll see what happens". "They [Edmund and Chung] have got to make a move", said Federer, 36, who wrote to long-term rival Rafael Nadal on Tuesday after the Spaniard was forced to retire with a hip problem early in the fifth set of his quarter-final against Cilic.

His path to Slam No. 20 had a couple of boosts with Chung taking out Alexander Zverev, who got the better of him on the way to his first Masters, and many thought he would have been the heir apparent to the old guard, but his woeful record at Slams continued.

The 19-time Grand Slam champion, who hasn't lost in five matches against Berdych in Melbourne, will play in his 43rd Grand Slam semi-final, a record for the post-1968 Open Era.

"The trophy was on there once upon a time but it's all good. I [have] never played in the second week in Grand Slam, so I'm really surprised", Chung said. I make semis, I beat like Sascha, Novak, the other good players.

The injury was a fresh worry for the 12-time Grand Slam champion, whose ranking has slipped to 14 after an inactive second half of 2017. Chung wears glasses when he plays because of his high-level astigmatism, earning him the nicknames "The Professor" and "The Scientist". I don't know how I'm going to do that exactly yet. In an interview, he admitted to thinking ahead during the previous game when he led 40-0, only to have to save two break points.

"I would like to play against the player that I would beat in the final." he said.
