Grigor Dimitrov met fin à une série de 16 ans à Roland-Garros après sa défaite en qualifications

Grigor Dimitrov a été éliminé dès le premier tour des qualifications de Roland-Garros, mettant fin à une série de participations aux Internationaux de France qui remontait à 16 ans. Le joueur bulgare de 35 ans s'est incliné face au Portugais Jaime Faria sur le score de 3-6, 7-5, 7-6.

Dimitrov a servi pour le match à deux reprises durant la rencontre sur le court Suzanne-Lenglen, mais a été breaké à chaque fois. Faria, tête de série numéro 10 des qualifications, a décrit son retournement de situation après avoir été mené dans le deuxième set. « J'avais un break de retard dans le deuxième set, il servait pour le match. J'ai simplement trouvé la force de renverser la vapeur », a-t-il déclaré. Dimitrov a salué les spectateurs en quittant le court, ses sacs à la main, après sa défaite.
