Jo-Wilfried Tsonga says he "has nothing to lose" against Novak Djokovic in the French Open after his win over Stanislas Wawrinka.

The Frenchman overcame Wawrinka in five sets when returning to action on Monday, eventually winning the fourth-round clash 6-4 7-6 (8-6) 3-6 3-6 6-4. Tsonga now meets hot favourite and top seed Djokovic in the last eight and he approaches the clash with confidence despite the fact he is likely to be up against it when facing the world number one. "Physically, I feel good - the more I play, the better I play," said Tsonga. "For sure there is more pressure on him. For me to play on clay is never easy, I did my best results on grass or hard courts. "Clay is difficult but I'm sure I will be able to play well, and playing in front of my crowd I have nothing to lose against the world number one."
