French Open: Faria Stuns Dimitrov; Wong, Gojo, And Heide Advance On Day 2 Of Qualifiers
Frenchman Sascha Gueymard Wayenburg: Jaime Faria produced one of the biggest upsets of the opening week of French Open qualifying after battling past former World No. 3 Grigor Dimitrov in a dramatic three-set encounter in Paris on Tuesday.
The Portuguese player recovered from a set down to seal a hard-fought 3-6, 7-5, 7-6(10-6) victory and progress into the second round of qualifying, ending Dimitrov’s hopes of returning to the Roland Garros main draw.
It marks the first time since 2010 that Dimitrov will miss the main draw at the clay-court Grand Slam. The Bulgarian, once a regular fixture in the latter stages of major tournaments and a Roland Garros quarter-finalist as recently as 2024, entered qualifying this year ranked No. 170 in the ATP Rankings.
