Anne Keothavong reached the quarter-finals of the RMK Championships after a fine 7-6 (7-2) 6-4 win over Portugal's Michelle Larcher De Brito in Memphis. The British number one edged the first set on a tie-break but needed all her resolve to fight back in the second. The Portuguese 16-year-old led 4-0 but Keothavong stormed back with six successive games to seal the victory. The 25-year-old Londoner will face fifth seed Marina Erakovic from New Zealand in the last eight.  | 606: DEBATE |
