Chris Eubanks lands knockout blow on Stefanos Tsitsipas to reach last eight

• American newcomer wins 3-6, 7-6 (4), 3-6, 6-4, 6-4
• I feel like I'm living a dream right now ... I can't believe it'

Americans love a good fairytale, especially when they return for their annual jaunt across the Atlantic, loaded with empty suitcases for a spot of shopping at Harrods and with expectations that one of their young unknowns can conquer the summer grass of Wimbledon. This year they have another gilded memory to take home and their new hero is the big man from nowhere, Chris Eubanks.

Four years ago, it was the 15-year-old Coco Gauff who won a million hearts and three matches before Simona Halep stopped her in straight sets. This year, Eubanks, 12 years older than Gauff was then but equally amiable, a boom-crash debutant from Georgia with a game as big as his smile, also delivered for his compatriots three times.
