Reilly Opelka v Roberto Bautista Agut (4)

Wildcard Alex de Minaur v Jan-Lennard Struff 

Wawrinka has given Federer a walkover into the semi final, citing an aggravated back injury.

This is so disappointing, especially for Tiafoe who just was beaten by Wawrinka in three sets, and at least would have given Federer a battle.
