MUNICH, Germany, April 28 (UPI) -- Third-seeded Marin Cilic of Croatia, fueled by eight aces, posted a straight-set quarterfinal victory Thursday at the BMW Open tennis tournament in Germany.
Cilic, the highest remaining player in the draw in Munich, got past Horacio Zeballos 6-3, 7-6 (9-7). Cilic faced only one break point and won 72 percent of the points on serve but the match still took nearly two hours before Cilic finished off the long tiebreaker.
