Big names made progress into the last 16 with easy victories. In the men's draw, world number one Rafael Nadal and defending champion Novak Djokovic both went to the fourth round with straight sets wins.

Nadal took on 26th seed Dmitry Tursunov of  Russia.

Nadal took on 26th seed Dmitry Tursunov of Russia. The 22-year-old Spaniard was just too powerful for his opponent, taking the first set 6-3 with a beautiful forehand winner.

Tursunov battled hard in the second set, but Nadal just came up with more incredible shots, including this drop shot that kept the Russian on the run and always on the back foot.

Nadal eventually sealed the victory in 78 minutes. He will next play David Nalbandian in the 4th round.

Djokovic also reached the fourth round after beating Tommy Haas of Germany 6-2, 7-6 with some aggressive play that saw him dominate the front of the court.
