Searle, winner of the national under-16 title last year, looked to be cruising at a set and 3-0 but had to withstand a fightback from Fix to set up a last-eight clash against Croatian third seed Dino Prizmic.

In the wheelchair singles, top seed Alfie Hewett demolished doubles partner Gordon Reid 6-1 6-0 to move through to the semi-finals.
