Andrew Murray outclassed 14th seed Radek Stepanek at Wimbledon on Thursday, beating the Czech 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 to reach the third round.
The 18-year-old British wildcard is now the last home player standing after four-times semi-finalist Tim Henman's shock defeat by Russia's Dmitry Tursonov.

"It is my first Wimbledon and I knew Tim had lost... I wanted to keep the Brits going," he said.
But the celebrations are still on ice.
"I am in the third round. If I get in the second week then maybe I will start to celebrate," the teenager said.
Murray, ranked 312 in the world and taking part in his first grand slam tournament, played fearless tennis as he built a two-set lead in front of a partisan crowd on a sunlit Court One.
Stepanek saved two match points at 5-3 down in the third set but Murray held his nerve when he served for the match despite some stalling tactics by the more experienced Czech.
After benefiting from a lucky net cord at 30-30, he clinched victory when Stepanek looped a forehand wide.
"I was a bit annoyed that at the end he was trying to put me off... he knows I am younger than him but... he shouldn't do that," said Murray, who will next play either former finalist David Nalbandian or Slovakian Karol Kucera.
"I got the better of him so I am glad about that.
"I didn't really expect to win at all... I wasn't feeling well towards the end of the first set but I managed it.
"Hopefully they will put me on Centre Court next -- that would be a dream."
Murray is Britain's remaining hope for a first men's singles champion in 69 years.
The last British man to win the title was Fred Perry in 1936.
