Top-seeded Bernard Tomic was knocked out of the Istanbul Open, losing to unseeded Diego Schwartzman of Argentina 6-2, 6-2 on Thursday.
As the top seed, Tomic also lost his opening match a week ago at the Nastase Tiriac Trophy in Bucharest.
“I’m playing well on these courts, which are slow,” Schwartzman said.
“I tried to be focused today and I think I played a great match.”
In the quarterfinals, he faces Damir Dzumhur of Bosnia and Herzegovina, who defeated Illya Marchenko of Ukriane 6-3, 5-7, 6-3.
