Marin Cilic has advanced to the Wimbledon final for the first time, beating American Sam Querrey 6-7 (6), 6-4, 7-6 (3), 7-5 on Centre Court.

The seventh-seeded Croat finished the match with 25 aces and won 88 percent of the points on his first serve.

Querrey has won the first set 7-6 (6) against Cilic in the men’s semifinals at Wimbledon.

A female spectator needed assistance in the stands during the tiebreaker. The score was 6-6 with Cilic on a second serve.

After the woman was helped out of the stadium, Cilic was given a first serve. But Querrey won that point and the next one to take the set.

But Cilic retaliated in the second and third set.

Cilic, who won the U.S. Open title in 2014, will play Roger Federer or Tomas Berdych in Sunday’s final.
