China's Li Na made short work of Poland's Agnieszka Radwanska as she cruised into the quarter-finals of the ladies' singles at Wimbledon on Monday.
Li, the ninth seed, won 6-3, 6-2 against the Pole, who is seeded seventh and is three places above the Chinese star in the world rankings at ninth.
Li, yet to drop a set in this championship, broke Radwanska's serve in the first game of the match to give her a decisive edge in the set and did the same in the second.
Radwanska broke back in the fourth game of the second set to level it up, only to drop her serve again in the fifth game.
Li broke yet again in the seventh game and served out the match to give her a quarter-final spot for the second time.
The 28-year-old made the last eight in 2006 when she was knocked out by Belgium's Kim Clijsters.
The Chinese number one will play either defending champion Serena Williams or former Wimbledon winner Maria Sharapova in the quarter-finals.
