Grigor Dimitrov may not be the player he was when he reached the semifinals at the US Open in 2019. However, the Bulgarian still maintains claims of being on par with the best players in the world. At least in Delray Beach, Dimitrov didn't succeed. He lost namely against John Millman with 4:6 and 4:6. Quite surprising, because the Australian went into the match against Dimitrov as an outsider. In turn, he was number three on the seeding list.
Milman will play against Reilly Opelka in the semifinals this Saturday. The American, champion in Dallas last week, won against Adrian Mannarino 7: 6 (4), 3: 6 and 6: 1. Tournament favorite Cameron Norrie and local hero Tommy Paul contest the second match of the semi-finals. Norrie had to stretch himself 6:2, !.6 and 7:6 (4) against Sebastian Korda . Paul didn't give his compatriot Stefan Kozlov a chance at 6:3 and 6:1.
