Former finalist Marin Cilic ended fifth seed Andrey Rublev’s hopes with an upset four-set victory. The Croatian, seeded 27, knocked out the Russian 7-5, 7-6(3), 3-6, 6-3.
Russia’s Medvedev, who was booed during his second-round victory over Australian Nick Kyrgios, had a more comfortable match as he dismissed unseeded Dutchman Botic van de Zandschulp 6-4, 6-4, 6-2.
