The winner of the Norrie-Schwartzman match will face Gilles Simon in the quarter-final after the Frenchman beat Mackenzie McDonald from the United States 6-1, 6-1 in 63 minutes.

Former champion Richard Gasquet also advanced as he overcame a second-set wobble to beat Czech Jiri Vesely 6-3, 4-6, 6-3.

Up next for the 2016 champion is Jan-Lennard Struff after the German secured a 6-1, 3-6, 7-6 (7-3) win over Feliciano Lopez from Spain.
