Grigor Dimitrov crushes Federico Delbonis at Wimbledon

Grigor Dimitrov makes light work of Federico Delbonis in the first round of Wimbledon with a straight-sets win.

Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov is through to the second round at Wimbledon, thanks to a 6-3 6-0 6-4 win over Federico Delbonis.

The 11th seed struggled to impose himself early on, but he eventually broke his opponent's serve in the eighth game and served out the opening set at the first opportunity.

Delbonis never recovered as he made several unforced errors, but Dimitrov also raised his own level as he played some masterful strokes to race through the second set 6-0.

The former semi-finalist then eased off the gas early in the third set as the match drifted to 4-4, but Delbonis gifted him a break of serve in the ninth game with a slice into the net.

This gave Dimitrov the chance to serve it out, and he did so with ease to book his place in round two.
