We had a high quality quarter final in Washington as veteran Tommy Haas defeated in a double breaker Grigor Dimitrov.
Tommy was coming from a very tough week as the day before he had to win a couple of tricky 3 setters to play more than 4 hours. Today the German was up to the task to win this match in almost 2 hours.
Both Tommy and Grigor didn’t concede a single break in the entire match. The Bulgarian blasted 15 aces to fail to convert all 5 break points saved by Tommy. Match Stats
