Teenager Ryan Harrison continued his recent run of strong form by beating fellow American Michael Russell 6-3, 6-4 on Wednesday to reach the quarterfinals at the Farmers Classic.
Lu Yen-hsun of Taiwan had the day’s biggest upset, defeating No. 3 seed Marcos Baghdatis of Cyprus 6-3, 6-4 to set up a matchup against Harrison, who is attempting to make consecutive semifinals appearances.
Baghdatis, ranked 30th in the world, was playing his first match after receiving an opening-round bye.
“It really helps that it was the same guy from two years ago,” said Lu, a quarterfinalist at last year’s Wimbledon. “It gave me a little bit of confidence.”
