(AFP) – World number two Rafael Nadal continued his dominance of Diego Schwartzman, surging past the Argentine 6-3, 6-1 on Tuesday to reach the fourth round of the ATP Indian Wells Masters.
Rafa took his record against the world No. 26 to 7-0 in emphatic style, never facing a break point in a match lasting an hour and 16 minutes.
“I think I played a very solid match,” Rafa said. “I did a lot of things well.”
Rafa, a three-time winner of the Indian Wells title, next faces Serbian qualifier Filip Krajinovic, who ousted 14th-seeded Russian Daniil Medvedev 6-3, 6-2.

Rafa good congratulations in your win vamossssssssss 💪💪💪🎾🎾🎾❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍
Djokovic May be out of singles but right now he’s playing doubles….
Good for him! He’s been playing a lot of double this year, hasn’t he? Brushing up for Laver Cup? Doesn’t want to hit Roger in the back again?
VAMOS RAFA! All the best for Q.F.I am sure you will be well prepared for Semis against FedEx and back to your past superiority against him…
Vamos Rafa! Great job today!!
Djokovic is OUT, first loss to Kohlschreiber. Grats to Kohls, condolences to the Djoker. Didn’t see the match except for the very end, commies thought Djokovic was not looking well. Hope he’s not sick! Something is going around at IW. 🙁 Hope Rafa stays healthy!!
Serena had to retire from her match because she was sick. I hope to heck Rafa doesn’t catch any nasty microbes.
RAFA ROCKS
Congrats Rafa! You played so awesome today. Please stay healthy to be at full strength to win in IW. Then on to Miami and I will be there to cheer you on. I can’t wait to wear my Rafa t-shirts to show my pride and support of our Champion.
Sascha Zverev’s got the lurgy as well, and Anastasia Sevastova. There’s definitely something going round – I hope no-one else catches it!
Great match Rafa <3 Good luck for tomorrow.
