Xavier Malisse has won through to the fourth round at Wimbledon after defeating Fernando Verdasco in five sets.
Malisse, who made the semi-finals at SW19 in 2002, lost the opening set, but he won three of the next four to set up a match with either Roger Federer or Julian Benneteau.
Verdasco had began the match in the ascendency as he raced to a 6-1 win in the opener.
However, Malisse stuck with the Spaniard in the second set and edged it on a tie-break, before going on to win the third set 6-4.
Verdasco hit back in the fourth set to force a decider, but Malisse used his grass-court experience to win the final set and seal a 1-6 7-6 6-4 4-6 6-3 win.
