Three years after surviving a home invasion that up her career in jeopardy, the Czech enjoyed a 6-2, 6-4 win over Zhang Shuai to reach her first quarterfinal in Paris in eight years. The world No. 11 will take on Laura Siegemund for a place in the semifinals.

The Spaniard seamlessly slipped past resilient qualifier Daniel Altmaier, 6-2, 7-5, 6-2, to enter his second career Roland Garros quarterfinal. Carreno Busta picked up his 350th tour-level win and will face Djokovic just one month after their infamous US Open fourth round ended with the world No. 1's disqualification.
