Djokovic, Murray, Fish reach quarterfinals

LONDON, June 27 (UPI) -- Second-seeded Novak Djokovic of Serbia and Britain's Andy Murray, the No. 4 seed, advanced to the Wimbledon quarterfinals Monday with straight-set wins.

Djokovic, the Australian Open champion, breezed past France's Michael Llodra 6-3, 6-3, 6-3, running his match record this year to 45-1.

Murray, playing before a cheering crowd that included Prince William and Princess Kate, defeated Frenchman Richard Gasquet 7-6 (7-3), 6-3, 6-2.

The Scot star, trying to give Britain its first Wimbledon men's champion in 75 years, has twice been to the semifinals in the tournament and is a three-time runner-up in Grand Slam events.

Australian teenager Bernard Tomic moved into the quarterfinals with a 6-1, 7-5, 6-4 victory over Belgian Xavier Malisse.

The 18-year-old Tomic, a qualifier in the tournament, is the youngest men's quarterfinalist at Wimbledon since Germany's Boris Becker in 1986.

Mardy Fish ousted Czech Tomas Berdych 7-6 (7-5), 6-4, 6-4 and is the last American still in contention in the tournament -- male or female. Fish served 23 aces.

Spaniard Feliciano Lopez rallied to reach the quarterfinals with a marathon 4-hour, 18-minute 3-6, 6-7 (5-7), 7-6 (9-7), 7-5, 7-5 win over unseeded Lukasz Kubot of Poland. The match featured 55 aces.
