Roddick said about the challenge of playing Hewitt: “Lleyton's not going to give you anything. A lot of guys you can get on top of, you can get on top of their game, you can look for holes in it. Lleyton doesn't really have a lot of holes. He's pretty solid off both sides. He volleys well. You're definitely not going to get on top of him mentally. He's as sound there as anybody out there.”

Roddick Holds His Nerve In Hewitt Epic

Roddick flashed into life against Lleyton Hewitt, the 2002 champion, firing 78 winners – including 43 aces – past the Australian for a 6-3, 6-7(10), 7-6(1), 4-6, 6-4 victory on Court One in three hours and 50 minutes. It was Roddick’s fifth straight win in the battle of the former World No. 1s and Grand Slam champions. Three weeks ago Roddick won the pair’s AEGON Championships meeting in two tie-break sets.

The 28-year-old Texas resident will now appear in his first Wimbledon semi-final since 2005, when he reached his second successive final, against third-seeded Scot Andy Murray on Friday.

Roddick served well to take the 27-minute first set, capitalising on two double faults from Hewitt in the Australian’s first service game. But some gutsy counter-punching from Hewitt, in a dramatic 22-point second-set tie-break, levelled the scoreline. Roddick had led 5-2 and had three set-points, but could not convert any of them. Hewitt also squandered two set points, before finally levelling the match when Roddick fired a forehand long.

A left leg injury to Hewitt let Roddick run through the third-set tie-break and it got worse for the World No. 56 when he has his serve broken at the start of the fourth set. But Hewitt’s Fanatics, a large group of Australian fans, cheered their player back to life to take the pair’s 12 meeting into a fifth and deciding set.

Roddick clinched the decisive service break in the ninth game and went on to held serve for victory when Hewitt hit a forehand volley long. Hewitt, who missed six months last year with a hip injury, committed 42 unforced errors and served nine double faults in his first Grand Slam championship quarter-final since the 2006 US Open.
