Top seed Iga Swiatek saved two match points to fend off Olympic champion Belinda Bencic in thrilling fashion to reach a first Wimbledon quarter-final.
The Polish world number one was on the brink of losing out to Bencic’s high-risk strategy before recovering to win 6-7 (4-7) 7-6 (7-2) 6-3.
She keeps alive her chances of a fifth Grand Slam title, with Victoria Azarenka or Elina Svitolina up next.
Fourth seed Jessica Pegula also made the last eight for the first time.
