The ninth day of main draw action at the 2023 Madrid Open on Wednesday will feature two men's singles and two women's singles quarterfinals. Three seeds and a lucky loser will be in action on the men's side. On the women's side, top seed Iga Swiatek will be one of four seeds in action.
As the business end of the tournament approaches, the top players in both draws are making themselves count. However, in an upset on Tuesday, the in-form Daniil Medvedev lost in straight sets to his compatriot Aslan Karatsev.
Medvedev, who has a tour-leading 33 wins this season, dropped a tough opening set in a tiebreak before Karatsev completed a straight-sets win to reach the last eight. However, he will not be in action on Wednesday.

In other matches on the day, tenth seed Karen Khachanov beat compatriot Andrey Rublev in another all-Russian fourth-round tie to book his place in the quarterfinals. Meanwhile, lucky loser Daniel Altmaier is having a dream fortnight at the Caja Magica, beating Jaume Munar for the loss of just three games to romp into the last eight.
On the women's side, second seed Aryna Sabalenka avoided the upset bug, recovering from the loss of a lopsided opening set to surrender only three games the rest of the way. Top seed Iga Swiatek - having won the title last year - is also alive in the draw as she moves to within three wins of the Madrid title.
