Canada’s Denis Shapovalov rode his first serve to a 6-1, 4-6, 6-3 win over fourth-seeded Taylor Fritz of the United States in the second round of the Erste Bank Open on Wednesday in Vienna, Austria.

In a matchup of the world’s 19th-ranked player (Shapovalov) and the world’s 10th-ranked player, the Canadian won 29 of 33 points on his first serve, including 12 of 13 in the decisive third set.

Shapovalov’s quarterfinal opponent will be Great Britain’s Daniel Evans, who cruised past Russia’s Karen Khachanov 6-2, 6-2.

The rest of the day’s action was the conclusion of the first round. Top-seeded Daniil Medvedev of Russia, second-seeded Stefanos Tsitsipas of Greece, sixth-seeded Jannik Sinner of Italy and the United States’ Marcos Giron all won in straight sets.

French qualifier Arthur Rinderknech continued his strong form, beating Slovakia’s Alex Molcan 6-2, 6-4 to earn a quarterfinal berth at Basel, Switzerland.
