Following a rash of upsets throughout the tournament, top-seeded Novak Djokovic headed into Tuesday at the 2016 Miami Open with a major target on his back.

Djokovic was one of a few seeded players taking the court in Key Biscayne, Florida, as the event begins reaching the latter stages. Fourth-round play concluded in the men's side, while the quarterfinals began in the women's draw.

The updated brackets for the men's singles and women's singles tournaments are available on the tournament's official website.  

Here's a brief recap for how each draw unfolded Tuesday.

 

Men's Recap

The men's draw provided few surprises Tuesday, as the top seeds have all advanced to the quarterfinals.

Djokovic may have won in straight sets, but that doesn't properly convey how hard Dominic Thiem pushed him. The top player in the world surrendered 15 break-point opportunities, saving all but one. Thiem actually won more return points (43) than he did on serve (34).

According to TennisTV, the 22-year-old Austrian also hit more winners (15) than his opponent (six), and Djokovic committed nine double-faults.

However, Thiem was unable to put Djokovic away when he had the chance, a problem he acknowledged after the match, per the Associated Press' Tim Reynolds: "With one of 15 break points, you cannot beat anyone, probably. For sure, not Djokovic."

On Wednesday, Djokovic will meet Tomas Berdych, who had his hands full with Richard Gasquet, in the quarterfinals. The turning point in the match came in the 11th game of the third set, when Berdych earned a service break. That allowed him to serve for the match, and he quickly put the Frenchman away for the victory.

Of course, Berdych's matchup in the quarters puts a damper on his win Tuesday. Djokovic owns a 22-2 advantage in the pair's 24 meetings. Berdych's last win came in Rome in 2013.
