Yet another Grand Slam event was looking grim for the American men, who haven’t claimed a title at a tennis major in just about two decades.

Early-round losses by Taylor Fritz, Frances Tiafoe and Sebastian Korda during the first week at Wimbledon figured to extend that skid by the U.S. men in majors since Andy Roddick won the U.S. Open in 2003.

Certainly, few were expecting unheralded Christopher Eubanks to make that sort of challenge, but the 6-foot-7 Atlanta native stormed into the quarterfinals with a stirring five-set ouster Monday of No. 5 seed Stefanos Tsitsipas.

The 27-year-old Eubanks, who defeated British fan favorite Cam Norrie in the second round, will face third-seeded Daniil Medvedev in the quarters on Wednesday.
