Atlanta, USA

Jordan Thompson has advanced to his fifth ATP quarterfinal of the season – and fourth since mid-June.

The 27-year-old is continuing his incredible run of form at an ATP 250 tournament in Atlanta, scoring a 7-6(6) 6-4 victory against German qualifier Peter Gojowczyk in second-round action today.

The world No.63 served 18 aces in the one-hour and 47-minute battle and lost only 15 points in total on his service games.

World No.130 Gojowczyk put up a fight, however, with Thompson needing to save two set points in the opening-set tiebreak.

Thompson, who has now won 14 of his past 20 matches, plays either top-seeded Canadian Milos Raonic or American Brandon Nakashima in the quarterfinals.

If he faces 19-year-old Nakashima, it would be a rematch of last week’s quarterfinal in Los Cabos – won by the American in a third-set tiebreak.

In doubles action today, Australian combination Alexei Popyrin and Matt Reid saved three match points to overcome Sweden’s Andre Goransson and Denmark’s Frederik Nielsen 7-6(4) 2-6 [11-9].

Fourth-seeded duo Matt Ebden and John-Patrick Smith progressed to the quarterfinals as well with a 6-2 7-6(1) victory against American Taylor Fritz and Brit Cameron Norrie.

In total, six Australian players have advanced to the Atlanta doubles quarterfinals.
