Zverev had never advanced past the fourth round before this year's Wimbledon [Reuters]
Alexander Zverev produced a dominant display to end his dismal losing streak against an injured Taylor Fritz and reach his first semi-final at Wimbledon.
The second seed had lost his previous seven encounters with Fritz and was losing their head-to-head 10-5, which included two defeats at the All England Club.
But with the American hampered by a knee injury, Zverev capitalised with a near-perfect performance to claim a 6-4 6-4 6-2 victory on Court One - his first win over Fritz in over two years.
A month after winning his maiden Grand Slam singles title at the French Open, Zverev is now only two wins away from a second major trophy and the German held his arms aloft after securing victory in just under two hours.
He will face Arthur Fery in Friday's semi-final after the British wildcard defeated Italy's Flavio Cobolli, the runner-up to Zverev in last month's Roland Garros final.
