Three of the last 16 matches in the men's singles at Wimbledon went to five sets, but tournament favorites Andy Murray and Roger Federer were able to reach the quarterfinals with minimum fuss Monday.
Milos Raonic and Lucas Pouille each came through grueling encounters, with Raonic recovering from two sets down against David Goffin, while Tomas Berdych and Jiri Vesely face a one-set shootout on Tuesday after the latter saved five match points in fading light prior to the day's final match being suspended.
By contrast, Murray did not face a break point in a 7-5, 6-1, 6-4 victory over Nick Kyrgios, whose form dipped badly following an absorbing first set, and seven-time Wimbledon champion Federer also won comfortably against Steve Johnson.
