Dimitrov wins maiden ATP title

Grigor Dimitrov has clinched his maiden ATP Tour title by coming back from a set down to beat David Ferrer in the final of the Stockholm Open.

The 22-year-old Bulgarian lost the opener 6-2 but rallied to take the next two 6-3 6-4, ending the Spaniard's dreams of a third title this year.

He had to beat off two break points in the final set before going on to seal victory in the indoor hard-court tournament.

"Even if I would have lost the match, the most important thing was to test myself to the limits and try to control what I can," he told the ATP website. "This was icing on the cake."

Dimitrov won the boys titles at Wimbledon and the US Open in 2008.
