TORONTO — Novak Djokovic advanced to the quarterfinals of the Rogers Cup with a 6-4, 6-4 win over Sweden's Robin Soderling today.

"I played more or less at the level which was satisfying for me," Djokovic said.

Also, Gilles Simon of France built on his upset of Roger Federer with a 6-3, 6-4 win over Argentina's Jose Acasuso.

Rafael Nadal, Andy Roddick, Nikolay Davydenko and David Ferrer were scheduled to play later in the day.

In doubles play, Frank Dancevic and Jesse Levine lost 6-3, 7-5 to Australians Paul Hanley and Jordan Kerr.

Dancevic lost to Djokovic in the second round of singles play.
