I’m getting better and better, in every training session and in every match. Very happy with how I’ve been feeling the ball and moving today,” Alcaraz said in on-court interviews after the match.\n\nThe Murcian will face Russian Andrey Rublev, number 11 in the world, in the quarterfinals, who eliminated Argentine Francisco Comesa\u00f1a (n.71) this Wednesday, who was making his debut in a fourth round of a Masters 1,000 tournament.\n\nRublev defeated Comesa\u00f1a 6-2 and 6-3 in one hour and 4 minutes to leave Cincinnati without the last Argentine representative.
For his part, the Italian Jannik Sinner, number 1 in the world and defending the title in Cincinnati, advanced to the quarterfinals by defeating the Frenchman Adrian Mannarino (n.89) by 6-4 and 7-6(4) in one hour and 48 minutes.\n\nSinner’s match was interrupted by a stoppage of almost three hours due to the rain that made an appearance for the second consecutive day in Cincinnati, a tournament that does not have indoor courts.\n\nThe match between American Ben Shelton (No. 6) and Spaniard Roberto Bautista (No. 53) was also interrupted by rain, with the winner ultimately prevailing in Toronto with a score of 7-6(3) and 6-3.\n\nIn fact, the match between Shelton and Bautista was the last third-round match to be played, pending since Tuesday due to the rain.\n\nSabalenka Stops Bouzas<\/strong>
In the women’s draw, world number 1, Belarusian Aryna Sabalenka, stopped the Spanish player J\u00e9ssica Bouzas, who is climbing positions in the WTA ranking with the best tennis of her professional career.\n\nSabalenka, defending champion, defeated Bouzas (No. 42) 6-1 and 7-5 in one hour and 21 minutes.\n\nBouzas arrives at the US Open after having achieved the best results of her career in recent weeks: first fourth round in a ‘Grand Slam’ at Wimbledon and first quarterfinals in a WTA 1,000 in Montreal.\n\nAlso played this Wednesday the Polish Iga Swiatek (n.3), who defeated the Romanian Sorana Cirstea by 6-4 and 6-3.\n\nThis Thursday the quarterfinals begin in the men’s tournament, while in the women’s tournament half of the round of 16 is still to be played.\n\nSinner will open the round, facing Canadian F\u00e9lix Auger-Aliassime (No. 28), while Dane Holger Rune (No. 9) and Frenchman Terence Atmane will play another match.\n\nIn the women’s category, the match between American Coco Gauff (No. 2) and Italian Lucia Bronzetti stands out.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
