Murray into last eight

Jamie Murray remained on course to defend his mixed doubles title with new partner Victoria Azarenka.

Scot Murray and former singles world No 1 Azarenka moved into the quarterfinals with a 7- 6 (8/6), 6-3 win over Matwe Middelkoop and Johanna Larsson.

Heather Watson branded a line judge a “snitch” after being reported to the chair umpire for swearing in her women’s doubles match.

Watson and her partne rT at jan a Maria were docked a point in their 3-6, 7-6 (7/5), 6-4 quarter-final defeat to Barbora Krejcikova and Katerina Siniakova after the official accused Watson of foul language.

Watson fiercely denied the language accusation and said: “It’s literally like a snitch running to the front of the class saying, ‘I heard her say this!’. I think it is so stupid.”
