The first two sets were shared before the Bulgarian began to find more consistency to run out a 6-3 3-6 6-4 7-6 winner.

A solitary break of serve was enough for Dimitrov to take the first set, but the 22-year-old lost the second despite conceding just two unforced errors.

Dimitrov has been known in the past to hit a similar number of mistakes as he does winners, but the Bulgarian was playing efficient tennis against the Canadian and it earned him the third set 6-4.

The fourth was dominated by serve, but after a lengthy tie-break, it was Dimitrov who prevailed to move through to a last-16 encounter with Roberto Bautista Agut.
