Marin Cilic of Croatia continued his undefeated 2010 season by beating reigning US Open champion Juan Martín del Potro of Argentina in a 5-set thriller 5-7 6-4 7-5 5-7 6-3 in the fourth round of the Australian Open.Cilic will play in his second consecutive Grand Slam quarterfinal, this time against Andy Roddick, who beat 2007 Australia Open finalist Fernando González 6-3 3-6 4-6 7-5 6-2. In the 2009 US Open quarterfinal Cilic lost to del Potro, who went on to win the tournament.
The other quarterfinals set so far is the mouthwatering matchup of 2009 defending champion Rafael Nadal versus Andy Murray

Interesting to note that in the men's draw, seeds 1-3, 5-7, 10 and 14 still remain - no outsiders! Quite a feat.
On the women's side, 3 outsiders in the lower half, include Henin who should probably be ranked, regardless of points issues.
some superb tennis coming to a television set near you.
Stay tuned!
