Fourth-seeded Czech Tomas Berdych has bundled former Australian Open finalist Marcos Baghdatis out of the Brisbane International.
The world number 20 needed little over an hour to thrash the Cypriot 6-0 6-1 at Pat Rafter Arena and move into the quarterfinals.
Baghdatis was on the back foot from the opening game as Berdych put on an exhibition for the Pat Rafter Arena crowd.
Berdych will face eighth-seeded Thomaz Bellucci of Brasil who ended Harel Levy’s tournament in three sets, 6-4 4-6 6-4.
Earlier, comeback queen Justine Henin met unexpected resistance from Kazakhstan qualifier Sesil Karatantcheva before winning 6-4 6-3 to also move into the final eight.
The 27 year old set up a quarterfinal showdown with seventh-seeded Hungarian Melinda Czink tomorrow.
