I'm really impressed with this win - not only beating another high ranked guy but also somebody who has 2 career clay tournament wins on his resume. Great to see.
You're right though, tough tough draw. Even though he got the upset Gulbis is ranked higher than Raonic too (although only a few spots this time @ 31st) and that match against Ferrer at the Aussie was epic - gonna be no easy matchups.
Awesome thing about this tournament though is that the field is smaller and points are doubled almost. Milos already picked up 45 points and 3-5 ranking spots just for making the 2nd round whereas it was only 25 for 2nd round at Indian Wells and Miami. If he can pull off another win now it will take him into the top 30.
