Jannik Sinner has maintained his ruthless progress towards a first Wimbledon final, consigning Pedro Martinez to the same merciless fate that Luca Nardi and Australian Aleksandar Vukic suffered in the opening two rounds.
Sinner beat the Spaniard 6-2 6-3 6-1 in Saturday's third round, bringing to just 17 the number of games he has conceded in three matches during which he hasn't conceded a set.
That is the smoothest start to a Wimbledon men's singles in the Open era, eclipsing Roger Federer, the sainted darling of Centre Court, who had lost 19 games at this stage in 2004.
