Melbourne, Jan 21 (IBNS): Spanish Tennis master Rafael Nadal reached quarter-finals of the Australian Open by beating Argentina's Diego Schwartzman here on Sunday.

 

Nadal reached the next round of the tournament by beating his opponent 6-3 6-7 (4-7) 6-3 6-3.

Nadal will face Croatia's Marin Cilic in the next round of the clash.

Nadal’s 6-3 6-7(4) 6-3 6-3 victory was his 15th match in a row at the majors against a player ranked outside the top 25.

“Was a good test, [but] at the same time … I prefer to win in two hours than in four,” Nadal was quoted as saying by the tournament website.

“And now we start the second week. Quarterfinals already. Now is the moment to make a step forward, to play again more aggressive. I know I’m gonna have a tough opponent in front now, Cilic," he said.
