Dan Evans mounted an impressive comeback to upset eighth seed Marcel Granollers and reach the quarter-finals of the Apia International in Sydney.
The British number three, ranked 67, struggled in the first set, but hit back impressively to win 1-6 6-3 6-3 in an hour and 43 minutes.
Evans was particularly dominant on his first serve, losing only seven points, and a single break in each of the last two sets was enough to topple the world number 37.
Evans will next play either top seed Dominic Thiem or Portuguese qualifier Gastao Elias as he continues his build-up to the Australian Open.
There was defeat, though, for British number eight Brydan Klein in the second round of the ASB Classic in Auckland.
Klein posted an excellent victory over Facundo Bagnis in round one, a player ranked 269 places higher, but Joao Sousa proved too strong, the Portuguese winning 6-3 6-4.
