The actor was all smiles as he met with Netflix star Luke, who wore a stylish matching suit.

GK Barry looked incredibly chic in a black and white tweed dress as she struck a pose before taking her seat. 

In a big-hitting battle between the two tallest players to reach the last eight, 6ft 5ins Fritz overcame a third-set wobble, a medical timeout and a rogue line call to triumph 6-3 6-4 1-6 7-6 (4) against 6ft 6ins Khachanov.

The American will face either back-to-back champion Carlos Alcaraz for a place in Sunday’s final.

‘I’m feeling great to get through it,’ Fritz said in his on-court interview.

‘The match was going so well for me for two sets. I’ve never had a match really just flip so quickly, so I’m really happy with how I came back in the fourth set and got it done.

‘I felt I couldn’t miss and then all of sudden I’m making a ton of mistakes. Momentum was definitely not going to be on my side going into a fifth.’ 

In another embarrassing episode for tournament organisers, Wimbledon’s faltering electronic line calling system suffered a further malfunction during the quarter-final.

‘Fault’ was incorrectly called by the technology in the opening game of the fourth set when a Fritz backhand landed well inside the baseline.

With the system still tracking the initial serve, chair umpire Louise Azemar-Engzell ordered the point be replayed.

Spectators and players alike should expect a torrid time at the south-west London venue over the coming week, after a yellow heat health alert was issued for the southern half of England, with temperatures once again set to soar.

The alert, issued by the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA), will be in place for seven days from 10:00am on July 8 and covers London, the East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, South East and South West.

“Significant impacts” are likely across health and social care services due to higher temperatures over the period, with the Met Office warning some areas will reach heatwave criteria and possibly see temperatures in the lows 30s by the end of the week.

The UK saw its hottest day of the year so far when 34.7C was recorded at St James’s Park in central London on July 1, while the capital also experienced the hottest start to Wimbledon on record.

Provisional Met Office figures also showed England had its warmest June on record last month.

An official heatwave is recorded when areas reach a certain temperature for three consecutive days, with thresholds varying from 25C to 28C in different parts of the UK.
