Roger Federer earned his 21st consecutive semifinal at a Grand Slam tournament on Wednesday after after beating Ivo Karlovic, 6-3, 7-5, 7-6 (3) at Wimbledon.

“I love the record I have of reaching so many semifinals in Grand Slams in a row — 21 is quite a number,” Federer said. “It shows how consistent I’ve been.”

Federer’s semifinal opponent will be Germany’s Tommy Haas, who came into the tournament as the 24th-seed. Hass upset fourth-seeded Novak Djokovic 7-5, 7-6 (6), 4-6, 6-3 on Wednesday.
