Philippoussis advanced to the third round on Wednesday with a 7-5 6-3 6-4 win over 14th seeded Swede Thomas Enqvist.
With Marat Safin, Pete Sampras and Andre Agassi out of his half of the draw and the highest seed left fifth-seeded Russian Yevgeny Kafelnikov, Philippoussis' chances of reaching the semi-finals for the first time have increased.
But first he has to get past his next opponent tonight, Germany's Nicolas Kiefer, who the Australian has a 2-2 record against but has lost the last two meetings.
Its great to see him playing some good tennis. Lets hope he can go all the way
