Fearnley beaten after Spain power-cut

TENNIS Jacob Fearnley fell to defeat against Grigor Dimitrov after their Madrid Open third-round match resumed following Monday's power-cut.

- 

The match was suspended at a crucial stage because of the outage, which affected much of Spain and Portugal and forced play to be cancelled for the rest of the day.

Fearnley had just broken back in the second set after saving a match point, meaning he had to resume serving to stay in the contest at 6-4 5-4.

Both players looked understandably nervous, and Fearnley had to save a second match point at 5-6 before sending the contest to a tie-break, which went Dimitrov's way, with the Bulgarian 15th seed securing a 6-4 7-6 (3) victory.
