@GillesSimon84, thank you!
On May 7, the 37-year old Frenchman announced that he would be ending his career at the close of the season. Marin Cilic, on his part will play Daniil Medvedev, the world No.2 in the round 16 who has been incredible since the beginning of the tournament and has never lost a set.
