Australian Open 2018: Kyle Edmund Beats Grigor Dimitrov, Reaches First Ever Semi-Final

Britain's tennis ace Kyle Edmund progressed into his first ever semi-final at a grand slam at the Australian Open after beating world no. 3 Grigor Dimitrov in four sets 6-4,3-6, 6-3, 6-4.
The 23-year-old made an impressive comeback after conceding to the Bulgarian at second set in a match that lasted for two hours 49 minutes. 
Prior to reaching the semi-finals, the Brit also beat Italian tennis ace Andreas Seppi to reach the quarter finals in five sets, and if chance permits him, he is set to be the first British tennis player to win at the Australian Open in 84 years. 
Speaking on his first ever semi-final attainment, the Yorkshireman praised his commitment to the matches played.
"It's an amazing feelings. I'm very happy. With these sort of things you're so emotionally engaged that you don't really take it in, you don't enjoy yourself, so just at the end, after a hard match and having played lots of matches so far, I just really tried to enjoy the moment. This was first match on this court and it was very special," he said when asked after the match.
