Players and fans felt the impact of high temperatures at Wimbledon when Thursday’s semifinal match between top-ranked Aryna Sabalenka and Amanda Anisimova was delayed twice in the first set because of spectators feeling unwell.

Anisimova's talent has never been in doubt, but it's a physiotherapist who she credits for her deepest Grand Slam run in three years.

The women's singles semifinals will take place on Thursday and start at 8 a.m. ET. Both matches can be viewed on ESPN and live-streamed on ESPN+. Aryna Sabalenka and Amanda Anisimova will meet for the ninth time in their careers.
