Garin Continues Winning Ways In Rio

Cristian Garin is on track to finish this month as the king of the Latin Swing. The third-seeded Chilean maintained his winning streak on Wednesday by defeating Federico Delbonis 6-4, 6-3 to reach the quarter-finals at the Rio Open presented by Claro.

Garin fired 22 winners en route to advancing in one hour and 37 minutes. The 23-year-old took the title two weeks ago in Cordoba (d. Schwartzman) and has prevailed in his past six matches.

Brazilian Thiago Monteiro, who upset fourth-seeded Argentine Guido Pella on Tuesday, kicks off the evening session against Hungarian lucky loser Attila Balazs.
