Kyle Edmund thumps Albert Ramos Vinolas, Gael Monfils beats Jo-Wilfried Tsonga

Kyle Edmund dropped only two games as he brushed aside Albert Ramos Vinolas to reach the quarter-finals of the European Open.
The top seed took only 56 minutes to beat the Spaniard 6-0, 6-2.
Edmund won the first 10 games of the match as he broke three times in the first set and then raced into a 4-0 lead in the second set before Ramos Vinolas managed to get on the scoreboard.
The British No 1 will face Ilya Ivashka for a place in the semi-final after the Belarusian beat Salvatore Caruso from Italy 6-3, 6-7 (8-10), 7-5.
Second seed Diego Schwartzman ended Cameron Norrie’s run as the Argentine secured a 7-6 (7-1), 6-7 (3-7), 7-5 win over the Brit in two hours and 33 minutes.
Meanwhile, Gael Monfils won the battle of the Frenchman as he beat compatriot and defending champion Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 6-4, 3-6, 6-4.
