Swiatek powers into Indian Wells quarter-finals

Defending champion Iga Swiatek powered into the Indian Wells quarter-finals on Tuesday, trouncing Karolina Muchova 6-1, 6-1 in just 57 minutes.

So far, fickle desert weather has been the only thing to slow the world number two from Poland as Tuesday’s opening matches were delayed 55 minutes by stop-start rain that saw players warm up then make the trip back and forth to the locker room before play got underway.

Once they started, Swiaek didn’t waste any time. She didn’t face a break point as for the third straight match she dropped just two games.
