MELBOURNE, Australia -- Milos Raonic lost his Saturday bid for another fourth-round place at the Australian Open as the Canadian went down 6-3, 3-6, 6-4, 7-6 (10) to Grigor Dimitrov of Bulgaria. The match, billed as a "next-gen" encounter between two of the sports rising stars, lasted two and a half hours. The loss kept Raonic, from Thornhill, Ont., from reaching a third fourth-round spot in Melbourne over the past four years. Raonic, seeded 11th, saved four match points in a dramatic fourth-set tiebreaker, raining down a total of 21 aces in his losing effort which included 50 winners, 39 unforced errors and one break of serve in his favour. The victory was the second in a row for the 22nd-ranked Dimitrov, who beat Raonic in Jan., 2013 in Brisbane. The Canadian won their first match in Stockholm three years ago. Raonic started out strong in the first set of the highly anticipated match-up, but failed to convert on a pair of break-point chances in the third game, with Dimitrov saving a second opportunity with an ace. The Bulgarian got Raonic in trouble in the eighth game, earning three break points and securing a break for 5-3. A game later, after 27 minutes, Dimitrov had the set in hand. Raonic answered by winning the second set thanks to a break in the fourth game, but Dimitrov took the third 6-4 after breaking in the penultimate game. The contest tightened in the fourth set, with Dimitrov standing two points from victory at 30-15 in the tenth game. Raonic held his nerve to level at five games apiece. The set went into a tiebreaker, with Raonic losing a 4-2 lead in the decider. Raonic then went into survival mode as his opponent earned two match points -- the first a serve out wide, and the second a tight Dimitrov backhand miss. Raonic saved another match-winner with his 19th ace, then fired his 20th for a set point of his own. Dimitrov saved it and eventually scored the upset after Raonic rescued another two match points before going down from a forehand to the net on Dimitrovs fifth chance.
