Lisicki elated by quarter-final triumph

Sabine Lisicki has revealed that she is "very happy" at reaching the semi-finals at Wimbledon.

The German world number 24 followed up her fourth-round victory over defending champion Serena Williams with a straight-sets triumph against Estonia's Kaia Kanepi on Tuesday.

"I am very happy," Lisicki told BBC Sport. "It was an amazing match yesterday and I had to calm myself down but I think the experience that I got from three previous quarter-finals here helped me.

"There is no pressure for me because it is a game that I love so much and I want to keep it that way."

Lisicki will face either Agnieszka Radwanska or Li Na for a place in the final.
