Watch out for Dimitrov!
Grigor Dimitrov is emerging as a serious outsider for this US Open 2024.
Injured at Wimbledon and having an average month of August, the Bulgarian has made a very high-level start to the American tournament.
Not surrendering a single set in three matches, Dimitrov seems very much at ease on court, hitting the ball hard and leaving his opponents far behind.
Facing Griekspoor on Thursday (40th), the 33-year-old once again ran riot, tormenting his opponent in just over 1h30 (6-3, 6-3, 6-1).
For a place in the quarter-finals, he will face Andrey Rublev.
