Daniil Medvedev

There were no holes that Djokovic could find against the Medvedev machine. The Russian was on a mission, and he posted a 6-3, 6-3 score against the world No. 1 to secure his spot in the semifinals. It's a long way from 2019 when Medvedev went 0-3 in London.

Alexander Zverev

The German is up and running in London after taking out Argentina's Diego Schwartzman 6-3, 4-6, 6-3. The 2018 champion has kept his bid for a semifinal spot alive, as he next faces Djokovic on Friday.

Diego Schwartzman

The world No. 9 always puts up a fight and even though he didn't have the best showing on Monday against Rafael Nadal, he came prepared to play against Zverev. Things didn't swing his way in the 6-3, 4-6, 6-3 match, though he managed to fight back to push the affair to a deciding set.

"I‘m happy because I almost did a good comeback," he said. "The match was going his way quickly. Then, I found a way to fight back in the second set."
