If Dominic Thiem wanted to play the final at the first Adria Tour tournament in Belgrade, he needed to defeat Grigor Dimitrov. Both players showed their great qualities in a match that lasted an hour and 8 minutes.

In the first set, we saw only 1 breakpoint that the Austrian had in the 2nd game. He didn't convert it and so the set reached tie-break. There, Thiem showed a dominant performance when he defeated Dimitrov 7-2 to win the first set.

In the second set, it seemed that world no. 3 will get an easy victory when he led already 2-0 and had a breakpoint in the third game. However, the Bulgarian fought back as the match reached another tie-break. There, Dimitrov had one setpoint which he didn't convert and after Thiem won another 3 points, he won the match 4-3(2), 4-3(6).

Thiem will play Filip Krajinovic in the final later this evening
