Halle Westfalen, Germany – Zhang Zhizhen on Wednesday became the first Chinese man to reach the quarter-finals of the Halle grass-court tournament with a three-set win over fifth-ranked Daniil Medvedev of Russia.

The world No. 42 came through 6-3, 2-6, 7-6 (7/5) after winning the last four points of the deciding tie-break.

“A really tough match. Last time I lost a third-set tie-break (in Stuttgart last week). And today again, a third-set tie-break,” said the 27-year-old Zhang.
