Draper struggled well, first reversing an opening advantage and then taking advantage of the light grip of the fourth seed on Love.

After an early break in Game 2, Draper sent it to 5-3 but took a timeout, and it was Schwarzman who caught the momentum in the tiebreaker.

But Draper made a few good counterattacks to push and advance into the quarter, joining Nuri and Dart.

Kvitova dominated the second set, Boultersuffered a concussion in the right elbow. And also the Czech failed to make a decisive time-out with the player who decided to move on.

The 25-year-old Boulterreceives a Wild Card at Wimbledon, which starts on Monday, and will enter SW19 with confidence.

Civilian Nuri, 26, was ousted early last week in Queens but regained her confidence with a strong serve against Nakashima.

After dropping four timeouts early in the first set, Nuri eventually turned one of them 3-2 and easily avoided the subsequent serve.

He went down to 0:40 in serve but equalized before winning the set with Nakashima pre-hand.

The second set started similarly, with Norrie changing his fourth break point in the team opener before winning four games.

Nakashima saved a match point in his serve before Nuri took it out with a perfect winner up front.
