Angry Dimitrov ousted Bulgarian loses to Zemlja after getting upset over court conditions


GRIGOR Dimitrov staged a temporary sit-down protest to register his anger at court conditions yesterday before he lost a five-set Wimbledon thriller.

The Bulgarian 29th seed, watched by superstar girlfriend Maria Sharapova, who was knocked out on Wednesday, went out 3-6, 7-6 (7-4), 3-6, 6-4, 11-9 to Slovenia’s Grega Zemlja in a second round match suspended due to rain on Thursday.
