Stefanos Tsitsipas and Felix Auger-Aliassime to go head-to-head at Queen’s Club

Top seed Stefanos Tsitsipas and teenager Felix Auger-Aliassime both came through double duty on Thursday to set up a mouth-watering quarter-final clash at the Fever-Tree Championships.
After seeing off the challenge of Kyle Edmund earlier in the day, Tsitsipas returned to action a little later and he was made to work for his win by Jeremy Chardy as he won 4-6, 7-6 (7-0), 7-6 (7-4).

Chardy found himself serving for the match at 5-4 in the decider, but the Greek broke back and then won the tie-breaker.
Up next is Auger-Aliassime after the Canadian outlasted Nick Kyrgios 6-7 (4-7), 7-6 (7-3), 7-5 in his second match of the day.
