Nick Kyrgios defeated Ivo Karlovic of Croatia in a 4-6, 7-6, 6-3 and advanced to his third ATP World Tour Masters 1000 quarter-final of the year.
"It was tough, obviously," said Kyrgios. "Coming back today, I had a very slow start. It was very windy out there, so I couldn't get anything going on my serve. Obviously he can serve through any sort of type of conditions. I just had to stay tough. Obviously, I got a couple of lucky points in the tie-break and forced a third set. I just managed to find some rhythm and find some energy and obviously take the third set."
