    David Ferrer to meet Thomaz Bellucci in Rio quarter-finals.

    Script:

    Second-seed David Ferrer continued his quest for a second title in two weeks when he defeated Argentine Federico Delbonis at the Rio Open on Wednesday.

    Improving to a perfect 7-0 record on clay this year, Ferrer is chasing a record seventh career title during the Latin American swing. He won a third consecutive Copa Claro title in Buenos Aires last week.

    The wold number four finally advanced through with a 7-6 (2), 6-1 win after a tough first set.

    Ferrer will now face Brazil's Thomaz Bellucci in the quarter-finals.

    Delighting the home crowd Bellucci earned his place in the last eight in Rio with a win over seventh seed Juan Monaco.

    29-year-old Argentine Monaco took the first set 6-4 before Bellucci fought his way back into the match.

    The Brazilian took the second 6-3, before going on to take an upset 4-6, 6-3, 6-3 win.
