–

Four of the top nine seeds made it to the final eight from this bottom half of the draw. Which is about as good as you can ask for considering the number of defections from this tournament before it began.

Shelton vs de Minaur was power vs. speed. Always a good contrast. But it looked like de Minaur was running on fumes.
