Kyle Edmund’s impressive run at the Australian Open has seen him become just the sixth British man to reach a singles semi-final of a grand slam in the open era.

Here, Press Association Sport takes a look at the other five men to make it to the last four.

Murray’s position at the top of the men’s game for the last decade has seen him go to the semi-final or better an impressive 21 times – and at all four slams. He has been in the last four seven times at Wimbledon, winning the title twice, six times at the Australian Open, on five occasions at the French Open and three times at the US Open, lifting the trophy in 2012.

It did not seem like a British summer unless Henman was making the last four of Wimbledon in the late 1990s and early 2000s, before falling just short. He did that on four occasions, in 1998, 1999, 2001 and 2002, while also making the semi-finals in the 2004 editions of the French Open and US Open.

Taylor was Britain’s best player at the start of the open era, which began in 1968. In 1970 he got to the semi-finals of the Australian Open and Wimbledon, where he returned to the last four in 1973.

John Lloyd

The former British Davis Cup captain did not really compete at the very top level during the 1970s and 80s, but did make the final of the Australian Open in 1977 – his best grand slam performance by some distance.

The Canadian-turned-Brit looked like being the best hope of ending the country’s long wait for a male grand slam winner when he made the 1997 US Open final. That turned out to be the only time he progressed past the quarter-final of a major tournament.
