Nishikori rolled to a 6-2, 6-4 victory. The fourth-seeded Japanese will face Australia's John Millman next.




Millman made Olympic history when he became the first man in singles or doubles to deliver a double bagel in an Olympic match sweeping Lithuania's Ricardas Berankis, 6-0, 6-0, in 50 minutes.
