Wimbledon 2005, Day 9

Swede Thomas Johansson, approaching the twilight of his career, reached his first Wimbledon semi-final and described the experience as one of the best weeks of his life.

The 30-year-old former Australian Open champion, downed a sluggish David Nalbandian 7-6, 6-2, 6-2.

"I was expecting maybe a tougher match today but I'm playing really well for the moment," he said. "I'm very happy with the way I played today especially with the way I was returning the ball."

He will need all his returning prowess when he meets Andy Roddick in the next round.
