SPANISH third seed Carlos Alcaraz made another statement of intent by sweeping past Felix Auger-Aliassime to reach the French Open quarter-finals.
Alcaraz, 21, won 6-3 6-3 6-1 against the Canadian 21st seed on a rare rain-free day in Paris.
The reigning Wimbledon champion will face Greek ninth seed Stefanos Tsitsipas, in the last eight.
“I’m really happy with the performance today; I think I played a real high level of tennis,” Alcaraz said.
“I’m happy with my serve, my shots, and my movement on the court.”
Tsitsipas, who is bidding to land his first major title, came from behind to beat Italy’s World Number 35 Matteo Arnaldi 3-6 7-6 (7-4) 6-2 6-2.
Elsewhere, Australian Open Champion Jannik Sinner recovered from a slow start to beat Corentin Moutet, the last remaining Frenchman in the men’s singles draw – 2-6 6-3 6-2 6-1.
Sinner will face Grigor Dimitrov in the quarter-finals after the Bulgarian beat eighth seed Hubert Hurkacz of Poland, 7-6 (7-5) 6-4 7-6 (7-3).
