Bulgaria’s No. 1 tennis player Grigor Dimitrov qualified for the third round of the Roland-Garros French Open.

Dimitrov defeated Borna Ćorić, Croatia, 6-0, 6-4, 6-3 in almost two hours of play. The Bulgarian player has now improved his personal achievement from his past three Grand Slam participations when he dropped out in the second round. His top result at Roland-Garros was the round of 16 in 2020 when he was beaten by Stefanos Tsitsipas, Greece.

Grigor Dimitrov’s next match in Paris is versus the 15th in the main draw Diego Schwartzman, Argentina.
