Juan Martin del Potro got an extra day of rest then a come-from-behind three-set win to reach the quarterfinals of the Olympic tennis tournament.

The 2009 U.S. Open champ stunned top-ranked Novak Djokovic in the first round Sunday, part of nearly 7 hours on court between singles and doubles in a span of about 25 hours. Then his third-round match Wednesday got rained out, and he looked strong in the final set in beating 117th-ranked Taro Daniel 6-7 (4), 6-1, 6-2 on Thursday in 2 hours, 12 minutes.
