What a start! Beckett him off to the first point. And it is a break of serve. Had to be quick. Stunning. Stunning from both. It's just a blistering shot. Well, the backhand was a bit of magic. He fell over and he lost his balance on that volley. It's massive. Well, he'll be disappointed with that. Alcaraz dismantles Dimitrov. And he makes it. 15 match wins. It's perfect. Beautiful. It's such a big forehand. Turn that point around nicely. This is high quality stuff. Oh, wow! Well, he's looked flawless throughout this set. That is one fine set of tennis. And here we go. The touch has been exquisite. He's got everything covered. It's his best shot of the match. A dominant display from Draper. It was breathtaking at times. Overwhelming. Taylor Fritz at one stage. Yeah, didn't quite do enough with the volley. It's a beauty that from Nakashima. Nakashima so sturdy. And also demonstrating midway through the rally. He's not content to give up on a point or concede. Oh, steady at the net. Benak. Brilliant. That's just fun. Nakashima continues to flex. Oh, no, Brandon. It's a familiar ending. And that's going to be tough to overcome. Right now, Nakashima four straight games. He has dropped to Shelton. Touch. It's just a single break. It separates the two. And the young lefty looms large in the bottom half. As Ben Shelton continues to hold sway over Brandon Nakashima. And there's the forehand. Slightly further forward or back. Oh, nice. A sense of urgency. Yeah, there's no easy passage today for either of these. It's going to be a slog. The final two points. The return winner. Yeah, inch perfect drop shot. And that'll do it. The Argentine has the opening set in pocket. And from bad to worse. And Cerandolo. Slams the trunk. Says get in the car. We're quarterfinals bound.
