LONDON, July ⁠6 (Reuters) - Italy's Flavio Cobolli will need to start booking his accommodation ⁠for longer at Grand Slams if his current rate of ‌progress continues after admitting his win over Alex de Minaur on Monday left him temporarily homeless.

The 24-year-old turned what was expected to be a closely fought battle into ​a one-sided romp as he outclassed the Australian ⁠fifth seed 7-5 7-6(4) ⁠6-3 on a blazing Court One to set up a clash with ⁠British wildcard ‌Arthur Fery.

It is the second year running Cobolli has impressed at Wimbledon after reaching his first Grand Slam quarter-final last ⁠year, so it was surprising to learn his ​accommodation had not been ‌booked for the duration of the Championships.

Asked immediately after his ⁠match what he ​was going to do to celebrate his victory, soccer-mad Cobolli said: "Ice cream and today my dad cooks pasta with tomato and onion.

"It's the World Cup ⁠so I want to see Spain and ​Portugal. I hope I can go early to the house but first of all we have to find one. We have our luggage at the ⁠old house and now we have to find (a new) one.

"Maybe you guys have a house here in Wimbledon?"

Luckily for the 24-year-old world number 10, his grandfather has come to the rescue.

"Yeah, we found. Already found," ​he told reporters later. "My grandfather helped us to ⁠find a solution for tonight. But I hope we've found a solution ​for all the week.

"An Italian family give ‌us all the house here in Wimbledon, ​so it's really cool. I will say thanks to them when I see them."
