Czech seventh seed
Tomas Berdych
reached his first Australian Open semi-final with victory in just over three hours.
The 2010 Wimbledon finalist ended a streak of three consecutive quarter-final defeats at Melbourne Park, breaking Ferrer in the fifth game of the fourth set and then fending off a break-point chance and holding the crucial subsequent game to hang on for the win.
"It's a really great feeling," Berdych said after his first ever win on Rod Laver Arena.
"There were some special moments which went well together in this match - making it for the first time here in the Aussie Open to the semis, winning my first match on Rod Laver after all those years. That's been a very special match to me. I'm extremely happy to go through."
