Andy Murray edged his way into the quarter-finals of the 2016 French Open on Sunday after defeating John Isner 7-6 (9), 6-4, 6-3 following more rain delays at Roland Garros. 

Isner's majestic serve proved to be a difficult obstacle for Murray, but the Scot ultimately overcame the American's assault to advance. He'll face Richard Gasquet in the last eight after the last remaining Frenchman defeated Kei Nishikori 6-4, 6-2, 4-6, 6-2.



Earlier on Sunday, reigning French Open champion Stanislas Wawrinka booked his place in the quarters after defeating Viktor Troicki 7-6 (5), 6-7 (7), 6-3, 6-2. He'll face Albert Ramos-Vinolas, who shocked No. 8 seed Milos Raonic with a straight-sets win.

In the women's competition, Garbine Muguruza ousted Svetlana Kuznetsova from the running with a 6-3, 6-4 victory, and Shelby Rogers overcame Irina-Camelia Begu by an identical scoreline to take her place in the last eight.
