The world number one Novak Djokovic powered to a 6-2 6-2 6-3 win over Grigor Dimitrov in the much-anticipated Saturday evening match at Roland Garros. Dimitrov defeated Djokovic on the clay in Madrid at the beginning of May but there was no hint of an upset this time - the young Bulgarian lost in just 1 hour and 44 minutes.
"First of all, I'm going to congratulate Novak for the great play today. Obviously he came like a champion and finished like a champion," Dimitrov said.
For his first 3rd round match at Grand Slam tournament Grigor Dimitrov gained ranking points which allow him to stay at No 28 currently but until the end of next week he might lose positions.
On Sunday Grigor Dimitrov and Frederik Nielsen will finish the interrupted first round doubles match against Chardy/Kubot. The score was 6-2 6-7(5).
The next singles match for Grigor will be on the grass courts of Queen's London. Then he will take part at the exhibition The Boodles Challenge before the next Grand Slam tournament - The Championships in Wimbledon.
