London (AFP): Russian second seed Daniil Medvedev reached the Wimbledon last 32 for the third time with a straight sets win over Spanish wildcard Carlos Alcaraz on Thursday.

Medvedev, fresh from his first grass court title in Mallorca last weekend, eased to a 6-4, 6-1, 6-2 over 18-year-old Alcaraz, the youngest player in the draw.

Medvedev will face either 2017 runner-up Marin Cilic or French qualifier Benjamin Bonzi for a place in the last 16.
