Newport, USA
Jordan Thompson's impressive grass-court form is continuing at an ATP 250 tournament in Newport this week.
The 29-year-old Australian has lost a total of five games in his charge into the quarterfinals.
Thompson was ruthless on serve in his 6-2 6-2 victory against Brit Liam Broady in the second round, conceding only three points across his service games in the 73-minute encounter.
This sets up a quarterfinal showdown with world No.38 Adrian Mannarino, who dismissed Australia's Rinky Hijikata in the second round.
World No.69 Thompson has won 12 of his 17 grass-court matches so far this season, which includes a quarterfinal victory against Mannarino at 's-Hertogenbosch last month.
Australian hopes James Duckworth and Li Tu also bowed out in second-round action today.
