Kei Nishikori recorded his 400th career tour-level win to reach the fourth round at Wimbledon.
The former U.S. Open finalist beat Steve Johnson 6-4, 6-3, 6-2 on No. 3 Court to make it into the second week for the third time in four years. He reached the quarterfinals last year for his best result at the All England Club.
Sam Querrey also advanced to the fourth round. The unseeded American, who reached the semifinals in 2017 after beating Andy Murray, defeated John Millman 7-6 (3), 7-6 (8), 6-3.
Querrey will play in the second week at the grass-court Grand Slam tournament for the fourth time.
Later in the day, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal are scheduled for matches on Centre Court as third-round play concludes before Sunday’s traditional day off.
Nadal faces Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, before Federer plays Lucas Pouille.
