At 37, Bautista Agut Reaches Queen's Semifinals by Defeating Rune

Roberto Bautista Agut is reborn this week on the grass of Queen’s. The Spanish veteran, who had already taken down Jakub Mensik the day before, delivered another high-level performance to eliminate world No. 9 Holger Rune in the quarterfinals.

Bautista Agut was impeccable on serve, not conceding a single break point, while also capitalizing on his opponent’s 62 unforced errors. After 2 hours and 26 minutes of play and a hard-fought battle, he triumphed with a score of 7-6, 6-7, 6-2.

He has now become the third-oldest player to reach the semifinals at Queen’s, where his compatriot Carlos Alcaraz awaits. This also marks his first semifinal on the main tour since his title win in Antwerp last year.
