Daniil Medvedev's exuberant celebration after beating Arthur Fils was not his normal reaction to winning a tennis match.

Daniil Medvedev is through to his third consecutive Indian Wells semi-final. World no. 6 faced the young Frenchman Arthur Fils in the quarter-final and prevailed 6-4, 2-6, 7-6 in two hours and 25 minutes.

(Reuters) -Twice champion Iga Swiatek thrashed Czech Karolina Muchova 6-1 6-1 to reach the Indian Wells quarter-finals on Tuesday before men's fifth seed Daniil Medvedev moved into the last eight with a 6-4 6-0 win over American Tommy Paul.

Medvedev was dragged into a decider by Fils, but eventually came through in a thrilling finale. And the Russian was in buoyant mood after booking his spot in the last four.

Holger Rune seems to like the conditions at Indian Wells very much and has played a great tournament so far, but he has no intention of stopping there. The young Dane – who has had several problems in recent seasons and has moved away from the top positions of the ATP ranking – has not forgotten how tennis is played and reached the semifinals in California.
