World number one Ashleigh Barty booked her first Wimbledon quarter-final by taking out French Open champion Barbora Krejcikova in the last 16.
Despite a liking for the grass courts, Barty had never made it past this stage before, but she put that right with a 7-5 6-3 win on Court One.
The Australian will play the winner of Emma Raducanu and Ajla Tomljanovic's match later on Monday in the next round - set for Tuesday - and will have strong hopes of adding a second grand-slam title to her collection.
