Carlos Alcaraz maybe wasn't even joking about buying a house in Indian Wells as the Spaniard revealed that the reason behind his viral message was loving so much the peacefulness of the Californian desert.

Alcaraz is now just the third player to make four consecutive semifinal appearances at Indian Wells, following Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer. Those three are also the only men to win 16 consecutive matches at this event, and Alcaraz is seeking to join Djokovic and Federer as the only ones to win the title here three consecutive times.

World no. 3 Carlos Alcaraz is safely through to his fourth consecutive Indian Wells quarter-final. The 21-year-old faced Grigor Dimitrov in the fourth round and produced a convincing 6-1, 6-1 triumph in an hour and 14 minutes.

Starting up top, Alcaraz is wearing the NikeCourt Advantage Men's Tennis Top in the "Team Red/Washed Coral/White" colorway. The performance top costs $85 in adult sizes on the Nike website.

Two-time defending champion Carlos Alcaraz is bracing for a tough semi-final test from "ambitious" British lefty Jack Draper on Saturday as he aims to take the next step toward a rare Indian Wells ATP Masters three-peat.
