LONDON -- Belgium's Xavier Malisse ended Greg Rusedski's Wimbledon dreams in 32 tense minutes on Tuesday, winning the final set of their fourth round match 6-4 after the pair returned to complete Monday's match with the score locked at two sets all.

Rusedski's defeat leaves compatriot Tim Henman on a sole charge to become the first Briton in 66 years to win the men's singles crown.

Malisse and Rusedski were called off court late on Monday evening in the fading light with the score at 3-6 6-3 3-6 6-3.

Rusedski is armed with the fastest-recorded serve in tennis, but Malisse -- a second round loser here last year -- was up to the task, breaking the left-hander in the seventh game for a 4-3 lead when Rusedski netted a simple forehand volley.

He served to stretch into a 5-3 lead and although Rusedski held for 5-4 the damage was done, Reuters reported.

Malisse, 21, served out for victory and next faces Mark Philippoussis or former champion Richard Krajicek in the quarterfinals.
