DELRAY BEACH, Fla. (AP) American Rajeev Ram upset fourth-seeded Grigor Dimitrov of Bulgaria 6-4, 6-3 on Saturday in the Delray Beach Open semifinals.
Argentina's Juan Martin del Potro faced American Sam Querrey in the other semifinal.
Playing what the 31-year-old Ram called ''two of the best sets of tennis I've ever played,'' he was composed and controlled while Dimitrov made unforced errors, particularly off the backhand. Ram won his only other career finals in Newport last year and in 2009.
The match was disrupted briefly in the second set when chair umpire Simon Cannavan spotted a drone flying high over the court. During the U.S. Open last year, a drone crashed into the stands during a match between Flavia Pennetta and Monica Niculescu.
