Iga Swiatek siguió la marcha en busca de su primer título en el Abierto de Madrid tras vapulear el lunes 6-1, 6-0 a Sara Sorribes Tormo.

La número uno del mundo se llevó los últimos 12 juegos del partido y apenas cedió cinco puntos en el segundo set para acceder a los cuartos de final del único gran torneo europeo en superficie de arcilla en la que la polaca no se ha consagrado campeona.

Sorribes Tormo, 27ma en el ranking, era la última española que seguía en carrera en el cuadro femenino de Madrid.

Swiatek, quien perdió la final del año pasado ante Aryna Sabalenka, se las verá ahora con la brasileña Beatriz Haddad Maia. La undécima cabeza de serie dio cuenta 6-4, 6-4 de la griega Maria Sakkari (5ta).

Además, la tunecina Ons Jabeur despachó 6-0, 6-4 a la letona Jelena Ostapenko.

En el cuadro masculino, el tercer cabeza de serie Daniil Medvedev logró reponerse a 24 errores no forzados para derrotar 5-7, 7-6 (4), 6-3 al estadounidense Sebastian Korda.

Para alcanzar los cuartos de final en Madrid por primera vez, el ruso Medvedev se las verá contra el kazajo Alexander Bublik (17mo clasificado), quien dejó en el camino 3-6, 7-6 (2), 6-4 al estadounidense Ben Shelton (14).

Además, el checo Jiri Lehecka superó 6-4, 7-6 (7) al brasileño Thiago Monteiro.
