Nadal keeps on winning in 2022

Rafael Nadal is yet to lose a match this year, improving his record to 18-0 now. The Spaniard defeated Reilly Opelka 7-6(3), 7-6(5) to advance to the quarterfinals, where'll he take on Nick Kyrgios.

However, Nadal mentioned that his foot injury was bothering him again and was in pain during the second set.

"So-so. For a moment, good. Then on the second set, a little bit worst, being honest. I felt my foot a little bit on the second set," Rafael Nadal said in his post-match press conference. "I was able to keep going, keep running till the end, no? That's the same thing. Yes, being honest, I am not in the moment to lie or to hide things."

Teenager Alcaraz takes out veteran Monfils

Carlos Alcaraz defeated Gael Monfils 7-5, 6-1 to advance to his first Masters 1000 quarterfinal. He's the youngest player (18 years old) to reach the final eight at the Indian Wells Open since Michael Chang in 1989 at the age of 17.

While the first set was fairly competitive, Alcaraz raised his level in the second set to cruise past the Frenchman. The teenager didn't face a single break point throughout the match.

Halep and Swiatek dismantle their opponents

Simona Halep handed Petra Martic a 6-1, 6-1 beatdown in the first women's quarterfinal. Iga Swiatek did slightly better by crushing home favorite Madison Keys 6-1, 6-0.

Halep and Swiatek were two of the favorites to win the title and are now set to face off in the semifinals. The two have been in incredible form throughout the week and their semi-final match is likely to be one of the best of the season.

Nadal isn't the only one who's on a winning streak, as Andrey Rublev notched up his 12th consecutive win by defeating Hubert Hurkacz 7-6(5), 6-4. His hot streak has been overshadowed by the Spaniard, but the World No. 7 appears to be the only one who can challenge Nadal at the moment.
