2017 finalist Nadal advances to 4th round at Australian Open

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) Top-seeded Rafael Nadal is through to the fourth round at Melbourne Park, beating Damir Dzumhur 6-1, 6-3, 6-1 in a night match at Margaret Court Arena.

Nadal, who lost the 2017 final here to Roger Federer, is attempting to win the Australian Open for the second time - the first was in 2009 - and add to his 16 major titles, second only among men to Federer's 19.

In the round of 16 on Sunday, the Spanish lefthander will play Diego Schwartzman, who beat Alexandr Dolgopolov in four sets earlier Friday.
