Carlos Alcaraz beat Fabian Marozsan to avenge his loss to the Hungarian at the Italian Open last year, while Jannik Sinner won his 18th straight match as both players cruised into the Indian Wells quarterfinals with straight-sets victories on Tuesday.

Alcaraz never looked to be in any trouble against Marozsan, pounding forehands and confidently holding serve to take another step towards defending his title in the California desert with a 6-3, 6-3 win.

A crosscourt forehand on match point sealed the victory for the second-seeded Spaniard, who nodded to his team and yelled "Vamos!"
