Del Potro Advances Despite Aussie Challenge

Defending champion Juan Martin del Potro had a scare today. He had to rally to beat Lleyton Hewitt 4-6 6-3 7-6(2). The Aussie pushed the 20 year old to the wire, but the Argentine was able to wrap up the match in the tiebreak.

Del Potro will now see Robin Soderling in the quarterfinals. The two players are even at 1-1 in their head-to-head matchup. This will be another must-see match. Hopefully, it is televised.
