Also through to the final 16 is American Jack Sock after an equally convincing 6-2 6-2 6-4 straight-sets win over Croatian Borna Coric.

The victory seals the 22-year-old's best ever performance in any of the Slams and comes after a first-round upset when he beat 10th seed Grigor Dimitrov of Bulgaria.

Continuing the theme of straight-sets wins was France's Jeremy Chardy after his 6-3 6-4 6-2 triumph over Belgium's David Goffin.

Chardy became the third Frenchman into the last 16 with his win, joining Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Gilles Simon in round four.

Richard Gasquet could make it a quarter if he can beat South Africa's Kevin Anderson, which would really give the home fans in Paris something to shout about.
