Amanda Anisimova is the first player (male and female) born in the new millennium to reach a slam quarterfinal.
The 17-year-old got to the last 8 in great style after conceding no sets on the way (see stats).
Currently ranked no.51, the teenager will also break in the top40 for the first time to be ranked no.35 (16 places up) if she loses her next match against Simona Halep. If Anisimova beats the defending champion, she will break in the top 30 (26). Then the sky is the limit.
Amanda and Simona will face each other on Thursday at 2 pm.
