World number two Andy Murray is now the favourite, after the early exit of top seed and defending champ Novak Djokovic. The Scot was facing the eccentric Nick Kyrgios in the fourth round, and a spot in the last 8 on the line. And a win by the 2013 champ would seal his ninth straight trip to the quarter-finals at the All-England club.

Murray would grab the first two sets and looks to take control of the third -- tied 1-1 in the frame, the two-time major winner unleashes this passing shot that the Aussie cannot reach.

And the world number two would get a break later in the set, and is able to seal victory with an ace, notching his 50th win at the All England Club. 7-5, 6-1, 6-4 is the final as he moves into the last eight without having dropped a set.
