According to The Sun, Karlovic, 30, hopes to be stepping out in style as he appears in the first Grand Slam quarterfinal of his career. Big-serving Karlovic, three inches taller than Crouch at 6 ft 10in, played up to fans with a rodeo-style bucking bronco dance after his fourth-round win over seventh seed Fernando Verdasco. He said: “It just came because I was happy. It was my victory dance. It was planned as I knew my friends were here. I did it for them. I will do it again. It will be the same dance.” Karlovic, seeded 22, had suffered four successive first-round defeats at the All England Club. But this year he has slammed down 137 aces in his four clashes so far. He has a poor record against Federer, though, having won just once in nine attempts. (ANI) |
