Everything went smoothly for Rafael Nadal against Botic van de Zandschulp until it came time to close out their fourth-round match. Serving for the win at 5-3 in the third set, Nadal was broken for the second time in the match.
He then failed to convert three straight match points when leading 6-3 in the ensuing tiebreaker. That was the end of the Dutchman’s resistance, though, as Nadal converted his fourth match point for a 6-4, 6-2, 7-6 (6) win on Centre Court.

Meanwhile, 11th-seeded Taylor Fritz is the only American man left in the draw. After three of his countrymen lost in the fourth round, the 11th-seeded Fritz ended that streak by beating qualifier Jason Kubler 6-3, 6-1, 6-4 to reach the last eight of a Grand Slam for the first time.
Rafael Nadal has met Taylor Fritz twice with both winning one game each. While Nadal won at 2020 Mexico Open, Fritz got better of his opposition at the 2022 ATP Masters 1000 Indian Wells.
