"It's been a solid year so far," said American Querrey, who fired 24 aces in Tuesday's match on centre court. "I don't feel a ton of pressure.
I'm just trying to feel good, just trying to play some good matches. The fans are great here. They're really supportive. They get behind the Americans, so that was nice." Querrey won 86 percent of his first-serve points and saved nine of 10 break points.
He next plays Viktor Troicki of Serbia, who defeated Kyle Edmund of Great Britain 6-3, 7-5. Second-seeded Roberto Bautista Agut defeated Great Britain's Aljaz Bedene 4-6, 6-3, 6-3.

Third-seeded Pablo Cuevas of Uruguay had an easier time in getting past Malek Jaziri of Tunisia 7-5, 6-1.
Cuevas' next opponent will be 16th-seeded Pablo Carreno Busta of Spain, who eliminated Germany's Jan-Lennard Struff 6-4, 7-5.
