MELBOURNE: A resurgent Madison Keys reached her first Australian Open semifinal since 2015 with another big upset to down French Open champion Barbora Krejcikova on Tuesday.
The unseeded American, ranked 51, was too good for the Czech fourth seed who struggled in the searing Melbourne heat, crashing 3-6, 2-6 on Rod Laver Arena.
Keys’ reward is a clash with either world number one Ashleigh Barty or fellow American and 21st seed Jessica Pegula for a place in the final.
