Andy Roddick booked a tantalising quarter-final date against former champion Lleyton Hewitt after outgunning Czech Tomas Berdych 7-6 6-4 6-3 at Wimbledon on Monday.
The American sixth seed fired down 24 aces as he outclassed the 20th seed with a combination of guile and power.
After giving Berdych the runaround, Roddick sealed his place in the last eight here for the fifth time when his opponent could only paddle a backhand into the net.
Berdych had been one of only two men who had not dropped a set coming into the fourth round but he failed to trouble Roddick with his baseline tactics and went out after an hour and 48 minutes.
