Maria Sakkari recovered from a poor start to win against Rebecca Marino in three sets on Thursday and reach the quarterfinals of the Nottingham Open on another rain-affected day at the grass-court event.
The Greek player won 1-6, 6-3, 6-3 to keep alive her bid for a second WTA title, after the Morocco Open on clay in May 2019.
Sakkari will next play seventh-seeded Beatriz Haddad Maia of Brazil, who defeated Yuriko Miyazaki 6-2, 7-6 (4).
In the men's event, Liam Broady became the third British player to reach the last eight by beating Finnish qualifier Otto Virtanen in three sets.
The quarterfinals begin on Friday.
