Andy is through to the Wimbledon semi-finals where he will play Rafael Nadal, after beating Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 6-7 (5-7) 7-6 (7-5) 6-2 6-2 in two hours and 48 minutes.
The Frenchman was pretty close to a two-set lead in the second set tie-break but he let a return drop in when he thought it was long, letting Andy back in to the match.
From that point on, the result never looked in doubt, and he advances to the semi-finals on Friday where he’ll play Nadal for the first time at The Championships since 2008 when the world No. 1 won their quarter-final in straight sets.
