Team GBs Johanna Konta continued her superb Olympic debut by beating No. 8 seed Svetlana Kuznetsova 3-6, 7-5, 7-5 to reach the quarterfinals in the womens singles.There is little time rest time for Konta who is back in action on Wednesday, competing in the mixed doubles with compatriot and world No. 6 doubles player Jamie Murray.The pair will battle it out in the first round with American duo Bethanie Mattek-Sands and Jack Sock.No. 10 seed Konta eased through her opening two matches in the womens singles but the victory over Kuznetsova was a real step up for the Brit.She made too many errors in the first set and only held serve once but then recovered from 2-0 down to take a high-quality second.Two-time grand slam champion Kuznetsova struck first in the decider with a break for 3-2 but Konta reeled off three games in a row to move to the brink of victory.She could not serve it out, though, and then looked in major trouble at 5-5, 0-40 only to save all of the break points, taking her tally for the match to 12 out of 19 saved.That left Kuznetsova serving to stay in the match and she was unable to do so, saving three match points but not a fourth as Konta claimed the win after three hours and eight minutes.The victory continues a remarkable year for the Eastbourne resident, who won her first WTA Tour title last month and is on the verge of a place in the top 10.In the last eight of the womens singles, the 25-year-old will play either second seed Angelique Kerber or Australias Sam Stosur.Press Association Sport contributed to this report.
