Just two seeds in Hamburg tennis quarters

Russian Karen Khachanov and Argentine Diego Schwartzman are the only seeds remaining at the German Tennis Championships after another day of upsets.

Russia's Karen Khachanov has beaten Briton Aljaz Bedene in the round of 16 at the German Tennis Championships in Hamburg.

The third-seeded Khachanov will play Federico Delbonis in the quarter-finals after the Argentine qualifier upset Spanish veteran and eighth-seeded David Ferrer 7-5 6-3.

Nicolas Kicker was a surprise 6-4 7-6 (9-7) winner against fifth-seeded Frenchman Benoit Paire and Diego Schwartzman hit back to beat German qualifier Cedrik-Marcel Stebe 1-6 6-4 6-2.
