Roger through to last eight

Roger marched into the quarter-finals of the Madrid Masters with a comprehensive victory over Guillermo Cañas.

As defending champion and top seed in the Spanish capital, Roger only needed 53 minutes to see off his Argentinian opponent 6-0 6-3. He was simply in a different class to Caas, especially in the first set which the world number one stormed through in double-quick time.

Cañas, the 13th seed, put up a better fight in the second set but was still no match for Roger, who will now meet either Feliciano Lopez or Stefan Koubek for a place in the semi-finals.
