Cinà leaves the Miami tournament: Dimitrov wins in two sets

The first victory at ATP level and the best ranking: this is the booty with which Federico Cinà greets Miami. The 2007 class, in his first participation in an ATP tournament thanks to an Wild Card, leaves the second American Masters 1000 in the second round: Grigor Dimitrov is winning with the result of 6-1 6-4 in an hour and eight minutes of match. The finalist of the last edition and current number 15 in the world uses the experience and his beauty game to put the blue tennis player in difficulty, aggressive from the first point of the game. Cinà, from the update of Monday, will rise to the number 366 position in the ATP ranking, but the climb in the tennis of the greats seems to have just begun.

The first set

–

Just over 400 ranking positions but above all twice the age: this is what Grigor Dimitrov from Federico Cinà separates. Experience is the key to a match that begins, however, with very aggressive blue. In the first game the Palermo tennis player wins two break balls, but Grisha Piazza Ace, takes advantage of an error of the downside of his opponent and is saved. Shaded occasions that are transformed into pressure for the 2007 class. The Bulgarian conquers a first break at zero, some game is repeated, easily flies on 5-1 and closes with the service, the weapon of a new Grigor, who here in Miami defends the final of the last edition.

The second set

–

The beginning of the second set is more balanced than the previous one. Cinà reduces the number of errors (12 in the first part) and maintains equality until 3-3, not granting and canceling two break balls in the third game. Dimitrov, however, back from a tiring Indian Wells, wants to close his debut in Miami as quickly as possible. Cinà courageously cancels him a match point in his joke, but on his service the former number three of the world is not wrong. In the third round, the Bulgarian will face the winner of the challenge between Nick Kyrgios and Karen Khachanov.
