World No. 1 Andy Murray was stunned on the seventh day of the 2017 Australian Open when he was booted from the tournament after a loss to the unseeded Mischa Zverev of Germany in four sets. Murray dropped serve eight times in the match, with Zverev ultimately posting a win at 7-5, 5-7, 6-2, 6-4.

In an exciting match between men’s fifth seed Kei Nishikori and 17th seed Roger Federer, Federer won in five sets, 6-7 (4/7), 6-4, 6-1, 4-6, 6-3 to reach the quarterfinals. The women’s top seed, Angelique Kerber, was upset by unseeded American Coco Vandeweghe, 6-2, 6-3.

But Murray’s ousting is still huge news. He joins Novak Djokovic on the sidelines, and now the “big four” has been seriously diminished. Rafael Nada, the 10th seed, and Federer are still in the tournament, though technically it’s third seed Milos Raonic who should not be favored to win the whole thing.

Zverev will face Federer in the quarterfinals, so it doesn’t really get any easier from here. Zverev is the lowest-ranked player Murray has lost to at a Grand Slam in over a decade.

Fourth seed Stan Wawrinka also has to be feeling good, having beaten Andreas Seppi. No. 12 seed Jo-Wilfried Tsonga needed four sets, but he too prevailed on the day, besting Daniel Evans.

On the women’s side, eighth seed Svetlana Kuznetsova found herself on the losing end of a very close battle. Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova was the one who handed out that loss, beating Kuznetsova in straight sets, 6-3, 6-3.

Below is a full look at singles results from the men’s and women’s brackets on Saturday evening and Sunday morning.
