Jannik Sinner advanced to the Wimbledon quarterfinals despite hurting his right elbow in a fall in the opening game and dropping the first two sets Monday night, when his opponent, Grigor Dimitrov, wound up quitting in the third because of an injured pectoral muscle.

Jannik Sinner is through to the Wimbledon quarterfinals, though not in the way he wanted. Sinner lost the first two sets of his fourth-round match with Grigor Dimitrov on Monday before Dimitrov was forced to retire from the match after suffering an apparent pectoral injury.

For Dimitrov, he is still in the prime position to reach the quarter-finals for the first time since 2014 when he beat Andy Murray. Andy Murray, at seed five, is the highest seed he has ever beaten in this tournament. Grigor Dimitrov uses all of the court to place a pretty routine volley right on the line to the oohs and aahs of Centre Court.
