Bulgaria’s top tennis player lost the first set, in the second set he lagged behind but then managed to turn the match around winning by 4-6, 6-4, 6-3 in two hours. This is the second match between the two players; the first match at the beginning of May in Istanbul was a disaster for Dimitrov who lost after leading by one set and 5-2. It was in Istanbul that 24-year old Schwartzman, ranked 70th, won the first and only title in his career.
