Wimbledon (England), Jul 3: Seventh-seeded David Ferrer of Spain reached his first Wimbledon quarterfinal by beating No. 9 Juan Martin del Potro of Argentina 6-3, 6-2, 6-3 Tuesday under the Centre Court roof.
Ferrer saved all four break points he faced while eliminating the 2009 U.S. Open champion.
