Overview

• Siegemund defeated lucky loser Solana Sierra 6-3 6-2 on Court Two despite an hour-long rain delay to secure her maiden Grand Slam quarter-final.
• Sierra became the first lucky loser to reach the last 16 at Wimbledon and was vying to extend that unprecedented run.
• At 37, Siegemund is the oldest woman remaining in the singles draw and has never before advanced this far at a major.
• She credited her deeper grass-court preparation, including extra warm-up events in Nottingham and Bad Homburg, for her improved form.
• Siegemund plans to deploy an aggressive, low-risk game plan when she faces Aryna Sabalenka or Elise Mertens in the quarter-finals.
