Italian Matteo Berrettini cruised into the quarter-finals of the men’s singles at Wimbledon with a confident straight-set victory over Ilya Ivashka.

Berrettini lost just one service game to the Belarusian as he sealed victory with a stylish forehand winner.

He will next face Felix Auger-Aliassime or fourth seed Alexander Zverev.

Russian Karen Khachanov booked his place in the last eight by winning a five-set thriller against American Sebastian Korda 3-6 6-4 6-3 5-7 10-8.

An enthralling final set on court 18 featured a remarkable 13 breaks of serve, as Khachanov squandered three opportunities to serve out for the match at 5-4, 6-5 and 7-6.

At 9-8 Khachanov, seeded 25th, eventually managed to hold his serve to win a gruelling match in three hours and 49 minutes.
