Aljaz Bedene won his 14th straight match, beating Robin Haase to reach the quarter-finals of the Hungarian Open.

The British No 4 won back-to-back titles on the ATP Challenger Tour before coming through qualifying in Budapest.

After beating Marius Copil in round one, Bedene continued his impressive form with a 6-4 6-4 victory over Dutchman Haase.

The world No 68 put a lot of pressure on Haase's serve, taking two of nine break points throughout the match while saving the only one he faced.

Bedene will face either second seed Ivo Karlovic or Bosnia's Damir Dzumhur in the last eight.

Jo Konta put a difficult weekend behind her to reach the second round of the Porsche Grand Prix in Stuttgart.

The British No 1 travelled to Germany from Constanta, where she left the court in tears and was accused of gamesmanship during Great Britain's fiery Fed Cup play-off against Romania.

Konta did not find things easy against teenager Naomi Osaka but took advantage of her opponent's physical struggles to run away with the third set and triumph 7-6 (7-5) 3-6 6-1.

She will face Latvia's Anastasija Sevastova in the second round.
