Elena Rybakina underlined why she is the new favourite to lift the Wimbledon title with a dominant performance against Anna Kalinskaya under the roof on Centre Court before her opponent retired injured.
With 2022 champion Rybakina leading her fellow 25-year-old 6-3 3-0, Kalinskaya left the last-16 match in tears after she was unable to recover from a wrist injury.
The Russian 17th seed had taken a medical timeout midway through the first set.
Russian-born Kazakh player Rybakina is the highest seed left in the women's draw and will face either Elina Svitolina or Wang Xinyu in the quarter-finals.
