The 33-year-old Čilič eliminated another Russian tennis player after Daniil Medvedev, and in the fight for his fourth grand slam final in his career, the 2014 US Open winner will face the winner of an evening duel between Casper Ruud from Norway and Holger Run from Denmark.

The 23rd player in the world against Rubljov recorded 33 aces and 88 winning balls, as well as 71 unforced errors. A tie-break was decided by a tie-break in the fifth set, where Čilič dominated with a ratio of 10: 2. He thus became the fourth Croat in history to make it to the semi-finals at Roland Garros in the so-called Open Era.
