VIENNA (Reuters) - Top seed Marin Cilic stayed on course for a third ATP title this year with a comfortable victory over Spain’s Feliciano Lopez in their Vienna Open quarter-final on Friday.

The Croat, a wild card replacement for injured U.S. Open champion Juan Martin del Potro, hit eight aces on his way to a 6-1 6-4 win over the sixth seed and 2004 champion to set up a semi-final with Germany’s Phillip Kohlschreiber.
