Sam Querrey sent hobbling -defending champion Andy Murray crashing out of Wimbledon on Wednesday Chiefs Youth Jersey , reaching his first Grand Slam semifinal at the 42nd attempt.
One year after knocking out 2015 champion Novak Djokovic in the third round, 29-year-old Querrey, the world No.28, won 3-6, 6-4, 6-7 (47), 6-1, 6-1.
World No.1 Murray's challenge petered out when he began limping off his right leg Chiefs Womens Jersey , his movement severely compromised by a recent hip problem.
"I'm still in a state of shock. I'm glad I hit that last serve in," said Querrey who finished with 27 aces and 70 winners.
"I didn't start the best but I just kept swinging away and found my groove in the last two sets."
Querrey is the first American man in the semifinals of a Grand Slam since Andy Roddick finished runner-up at Wimbledon in 2009.
"It feels great. It's a dream come true to be in the semi-final at Wimbledon, it's very special," Querrey added.
There was no sign of the drama to come at the start of Wednesday's match.
Murray, 30, was supreme in the first set, carving out the key break for 2-0 and taking the opener on the back of just two unforced errors.
The Scot was a break to the good at 4-3 in the second set before Querrey unexpectedly reeled off three straight games to level the quarterfinal, firing 16 winners Black Chiefs Jersey , twice as many as the top seed.
Murray restored his lead -after Querrey played a sloppy tiebreaker in the third set.
However, the champion's afternoon on Center Court began to unravel as his movement -became increasingly limited.
Limping badly off his right leg, Murray was being run ragged and was broken three times in a 22-minute fourth set.
The fifth set followed a similar plot line, lasting 27 minutes as Murray won just one point off the American's serve.
Querrey will face former US Open champion Marin Cilic for a place in the final. Cilic reached his first Wimbledon semifinal with a 3-6, 7-6 (86), 7-5, 5-7, 6-1 victory over Luxembourg's Gilles Muller.

MOSCOW, Oct. 4 (Xinhua) -- The leader of the al-Qaida-linked Nusra Front was serious injured and the group's 12 field commanders were killed in a Russian airstrike in Syria, Russia's Defence Ministry said Wednesday.
"As a result of the strike, the Nusra Front leader, Abu Mohammad al-Golani, sustained multiple heavy wounds and, having lost his hand, is in a critical condition Cheap Chiefs Jersey , according to several independent sources," defence ministry spokesman Igor Konashekov was quoted by Sputnik as saying.
Spain has Penélope Cruz, France has Marion Cotillard, and Italy has Monica Bellucci. But a breakout actress from China has yet to make a mark on modern-day Hollywood. That could change with Li Bingbing, whose profile is set to rise with her role in Michael Bay's Transformers: Age of Extinction.
A celebrity in her native country — "the Angelina Jolie of China," as Li's publicist put it — she has starred in more than 20 movies at home, many of them martial arts films. She crossed into US film in recent years, notably with Paul W.S. Anderson's 2012 sci-fi flick Resident Evil: Retribution Chiefs Chris Conley Jersey , starring alongside Milla Jovovich.
This edition of the "Transformers" franchise specifically appealed to Li, who's based in Beijing, because it features a story line with several Chinese elements. Li plays the role of Su Yueming, the owner of a Chinese factory that makes Transformers, and some scenes were shot on location at the Great Wall and in Hong Kong — which, in the movie, giant aliens are out to destroy. "The global audience will see something about China," she said. "And Transformers will connect with the Chinese audience."
Li considers several US actors among her favorites Chiefs Mitch Morse Jersey , most notably Matthew McConaughey, Julia Roberts and Meryl Streep. And, as with most actresses primed to break into Hollywood, fashion plays an important role in her career. She is a face for Gucci in China, and she partnered with Gucci Timepieces & Jewelry to present a special edition of its Bamboo collection.
In addition to Gucci, Li says, her favorite designers include Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen, Alexander Wang and the Beirut-based Georges Chakra Chiefs Chris Jones Jersey , whose designs she has worn on the red carpet several times. In her downtime, Li says, she opts for looks that are more casually chic than dressy.
"Comfortable" is how she described her personal style, though that doesn't extend to her feet: "I love high-heeled shoes. In the world, beauty sometimes comes from torture — the more torture, the more beautiful. I also love simple things, and my favorite is black and white."
At the Transformers premiere in New York, the actress wore a Giambattista Valli haute couture gown that consisted of a yellow bra top Chiefs Kareem Hunt Jersey , a blush peplum and a black skirt. The event came with a bit of anxiety for Li because she arrived in New York just hours before the red carpet opened. To save time, she had her hair and makeup done in first class before landing.
"I have to thank Air China because they understood me and had patience and gave me support," she said. "I also need to thank all the travelers who sat beside me and didn't complain to the cabin crew."
Spending time with Li, there is no mistaking her strong personality, so it comes as no surprise she prefers to play characters that share those attributes — Yueming in Transformers being one example. "She is so smart," Li said.
"She is a CEO. She is capable and a cutting-edge scientist, educated, sexy Chiefs Tanoh Kpassagnon Jersey , beautiful a.
