Zheng will play either the third seed Emma Navarro or eighth seed Amanda Anisimova in the semi-finals, before a potential final showdown with Australian Open champion Madison Keys or German qualifier Tatjana Maria, who stunned former Wimbledon winner Elena Rybakina earlier in the afternoon.

The vibes in London this week have been good for Emma Raducanu. She surpassed Katie Boulter to become the top-ranked British women's player and was powered by local fans through the first two rounds of the HSBC Championships at The Queen's Club.

The former US Open champion will surpass Katie Boulter, who was knocked out by Diana Shnaider in the last eight. She won the first set but allowed her Russian opponent to fight back and claim a 2-6 6-3 6-2 victory. It means Raducanu will return to the summit of British tennis for the first time in two years when the rankings are updated on Monday.
