Tokyo ATP 500 - Men's Second Round

Dmitry is on the comeback trail - having been out from USO.09 to RG.10.
When he left the tour he was ranked #36 - he is currently #432.
He has been playing challengers and qualifying wih a few direct accepts.
Since his return at RG he is W/L 3-5 - including 2 matches in Tokyo.
Rising: With this win he will move up about 200 ranking spots.
In the Qf's he'll play #1 Rafael Nadal - H2H: 2-0/RN.
Twitter: He is easily the best tennis player tweeting. Love following him.
Well, except that he can start tweeting photos already!
