Incredible! Cinderella man #Cecchinato defeats #Djokovic in an epic 4th set tie break. The story continues. Match of the tournament so far! #RolandGarros

Djokovic remains the most gracious loser on tour.
— Ricky Dimon (@Dimonator) June 5, 2018
Of course based on the strides he has made the last two months, he won’t be doing much losing the rest of the season.

Who is this guy that Djokovic is playing? 😅👏🏼 #RG18

Bloody good sportsmanship from Djokovic by the way. As is often the case with him. Sometimes goes unrecognised.

Marco Cecchinato takes out former champion Djokovic in a blockbuster match 6-3 7-6(4) 1-6 7-6(11).#RG18 pic.twitter.com/lNCX6BPves

Too good from Marco Cecchinato! Was clutch in the 2nd set and in the 4th set tiebreaker in the big moments! Novak Djokovic had his opportunities and missed a few forehand sitters towards the end. Novak, the fighter was evident though. But this moment has to be Marco's! #RG18

Marco Cecchinato becomes just the THIRD Italian male player ever to reach .@rolandgarros SF, and the first one to do so in 40 years.
— Utkarsha Mitra (@u21121997) June 5, 2018
List:
Panatta: '73, '75, '76.
Barazzutti: '78.
Cecchinato: '18.
This is nothing short of phenomenal.#RG18 #RolandGarros #Cecchinato

Nothing says feel-good story like a player that was banned for match fixing reaching the semi-final of the French Open...

Have seen Novak Djokovic at quite a few low moments. That rushed news conference was one of the very lowest. He didn't see that defeat coming

💔 for Djokovic. But this is just what he needs. Bring out the fighter in him.
— Vandana (@vidhpp) June 5, 2018
And what a run for Cecchinato! Takes a lot of mental strength to come back from the momentum swing against Nole!👏
18:02 (GMT)5 JUN 2018
Cecchinato did great to hang with Djokovic off the ground. Stopped the best story of the tournament -- Trungelliti -- and then became it.

Astonishing from a man who never won a match at a GS and now bundles out the 12-time Grand slam champ Novak Djokovic to make the SF at #RolandGarros ... take a bow Marco Cecchinato #RG18

Achievement unlocked: World No. 72 Marco Cecchinato upsets Novak Djokovic 6-3, 7-6(6), 1-6, 7-6(11) to reach #RolandGarros SEMI-FINALS.
— Gaspar Ribeiro Lança (@gasparlanca) June 5, 2018
Ten days ago he had 0 Grand Slam main draw wins, now he's into the "final four" in Paris. What an incredible story. pic.twitter.com/9kP3bBHQTC

6 weeks ago, the match-fixing review found 'no evidence of top-level players being implicated.'
— Tumaini Carayol (@tumcarayol) June 5, 2018
Marco Cecchinato, previously accused of fixing, promptly wins Budapest (ranked 92), reaches the Roland Garros semi-final and becomes a top-level player. He'll be ranked at least #27.

WOW. #72 Marco Cecchinato saves 3SPs in both 2nd and 4th sets, upsets Novak Djokovic 6-3, 7-6(4), 1-6, 7-6(11) to reach the #RG18 semifinals vs Thiem.

One of the most surprising runs at a Slam in recent years.

Novak Djokovic OUT in the quarter-finals, defeated 6-3 7-6 1-6 7-6 by Marco Cecchinato, the world No 72 who had never won a grand slam match before this fortnight #RolandGarros
