Gaultier, who stayed even with Power until 10-all in the second game, showed a willingness to chase down the Canadian's shots and even wrong-footed him a few times. But at 10-all, Power hit a scissors kick overhead into the nick to take complete control of the match. "It just feels good to be getting some match play," said Power, who has been out of action on the men's PSA Tour since sustaining an eye injury two and a half months ago. "I'm right where I want to be in the Harrisdirect Tournament of Champions - into the quarter-finals and feeling fitter with each match," said the four-times champion after his 15-7 15-11 15-5 victory in 51 minutes. Power's quarter-final opponent will be fifth seed Stewart Boswell who outlasted fellow Australian Paul Price in a marathon match that lasted 83 minutes. Price had the opportunity to make the match last even longer. Up 14-10 in the fourth game, he let four game points slip through his fingers and succumbed in the tiebreaker to give Boswell a 15-12 11-15 15-10 17-15 victory. Sixth-seeded Thierry Lincou used measured shots to defeat Englishman Simon Parke 15-11 15-4 15-10 to advance to the last eight. The Frenchman wielded his racquet with such precision that Parke never had the opportunity to really get into the match. The pace of Scotsman John White was too much for Egyptian qualifier Mohammed Abbas, who was defeated 15-10 17-15 15-5 in 35 minutes by the power hitter of the men's tour. In the Arader & O'Rourke Women's Open, England's Cassie Jackman won the second game of her match without giving up the serve - going on to upset higher-seeded fellow Englishwoman Linda Charman 9-7 9-0 6-9 9-3 to advance to the semi-finals. Jackman, in her first major WISPA World Tour event since undergoing back surgery in September, displayed the fluid form and athletic quickness that earned her a world championship and No1 world ranking before she was hampered by injuries. "I am just so happy to be out here playing, because four months ago I couldn't even walk," said Jackman. Her semi-final opponent will be former compatriot Natalie Pohrer, the No2 seed now representing the USA, who defeated England's Rebecca Macree in three games. Top-seeded Carol Owens confessed to feeling a bit tentative despite looked focused in her three game defeat of England's Jenny Tranfield. Owens, who may be feeling a bit of the pressure of being heiress apparent to the top spot in the women's game since world No1 Sarah Fitz-Gerald announced her retirement from the women's tour last week, will meet England's Tania Bailey, the No6 seed. Bailey advanced to the semi-finals with a 9-1 9-5 9-2 upset over fourth-seeded Rachael Grinham. Bailey, who lost to Grinham when they last met in the Singapore Open last year, used a new strategy to defeat the Aussie who has made a dramatic move up in the women's rankings in the last year. "If you hit the ball hard, Rachael feeds off that. So I slowed it down and hit it straight," explained the 23-year-old from Lincolnshire who has clearly conquered the stomach virus which hampered her progress in last week's British National Championships.
