Andy Murray showed a classy performance against American Taylor Dent tonight as he won in straight sets. Dent has a mostly serve and volley game and Murray didn't expect him to be so into it, so he sometimes got down on himself but found ways to get around it and claim the quarterfinal spot with a score of 63 62 62.
Rafael Nadal didn't have a lot of trouble against Nicolas Almagro either as he also beat him in straight sets. Nadal received some treatment to his abdominal muscle and Almagro received treatment to his back and the crowd were abit worried about the players' performance. Though both players exchanged breaks of serve quite a lot of times in the match, Nadal was the one who picked up his game in the important moments to win the match with a score of 75 64 64.
Gilles Simon retired from his match against former US Open finalist Juan Carlos Ferrero and Juan Martin del Potro also got his ticket to the quarters.
It was a great Labour's Day weekend and looking forward to Labour Day action tomorrow!
