One of the underachievers in the men's tour, Xavier Malisse is finally into his third fourth round appearance here in Wimbledon. His last appearance was in 2004. He was a semifinalist here in 2002. Malisse has a good chance of making it into the quarterfinals since his opponent in the fourth round is ranked #158 in the world, Australian qualifier Bernard Tomic. However, Malisse has to play a very good game when they do meet since Tomic looked very impressive in his match against Soderling.
