Top-seeded Grigor Dimitrov beat Kyle Edmund 6-3, 6-7 (3), 6-4 in the Brisbane (Australia) International quarterfinals Friday to set up a semifinal meeting today with No. 3-seeded Nick Kyrgios, who rebounded for a 1-6, 6-3, 6-4 win over former finalist Alexandr Dolgopolov.

Teenage wild-card entry Alex De Minaur followed up his upset victory over Milos Raonic with a routine 6-4, 6-0 win over Michael Mmoh to reach his first tour-level semifinal. The 18-year-old De Minaur will play Ryan Harrison, who led 7-6 (6), 4-2 when Denis Istomin retired from their quarterfinal match with a hip strain.

Hopman Cup: Angelique Kerber won her singles and contributed heavily in the deciding mixed doubles victory that gave Germany a 2-1 win over host Australia and a spot in the Hopman Cup final against Switzerland.

Kerber beat Australia’s Daria Gavrilova 6-1, 6-2, and she and fellow German Alexander Zverev will face Roger Federer and Belinda Bencic in Perth, Australia, today for the title.

Germany has won the Hopman Cup twice, but not since Boris Becker and Anke Huber teamed up in 1995.

Shenzhen (China) Open: Defending champion Katerina Siniakova defeated Maria Sharapova 6-2, 3-6, 6-3 in her first meeting with the fivetime major winner.

Qatar Open: Andrey Rublev saved a match point to reach his second career ATP Tour final with a 6-2, 4-6, 7-6 (2) win over Guido Pella.

Rublev will play Gael Monfils, who reached the final in Doha without hitting a ball in the semifinals when topseeded Dominic Thiem withdrew from the tournament because of illness.
