Dimitrov takes the Brisbane title defeating Nishikori 6-2 2-6 6-3 - First ATP title since Queen's Club in 2014. A re-focused Dimitrov is great to see, he's a very talented player.
A former World No. 8, Dimitrov saw his Emirates ATP Ranking slip to No. 40 midway through 2016 before a heart-to-heart career reflection with coach Dani Vallverdu saw the 25 year old turn around his career and finish the year at No. 17.
"It is one of the big moments for me," said Dimitrov, who claimed his first win over Nishikori in four FedEx ATP Head2Head encounters. "It's been quite a few months for me on and off the court. I think that was an emotional win for me, but at the same time, it wasn't unexpected. I have put in the work. I think I have learned a lot. I have gone through some serious work and I have just been working on myself on and off the court.
