Alex de Minaur has stormed into the Queen's Club quarter-finals with a dominant straight-sets win over Diego Schwartzman.

A day after disposing of Andy Murray in London, dropping just four games in the process, Australia's No.1 male singles player took just 65 minutes to see off the 30-year-old Argentine.

The 6-2 6-2 win on Thursday sets up a last-eight encounter with Frenchman Adrian Mannarino, who beat third-seeded American Taylor Fritz 6-4 7-6 (9-7).

De Minaur, the world No.18, broke in the opening game of both sets and again for 4-1 in both sets to continue his impressive form ahead of his next tilt at Wimbledon.

The 24-year-old Sydneysider broke the 107th-ranked Schwartzman again at 5-2, before serving it out on his second match point.
