BRISBANE:
Bulgaria's second seed Dimitrov has a great track record in the city, winning the title twice, as well as making the final in 2013.
His 7-6 (7/5), 6-3 victory over Germany's Hanfmann was his 24th in Brisbane, more than any other player.
Yet he has flown under the radar this year due to the presence of former world number one Novak Djokovic and the comeback of mercurial Australian Nick Kyrgios after an 18-month injury layoff. Djokovic and Kyrgios teamed up for an unlikely doubles appearance and won their first round clash 6-4, 6-7 (4/7), 10/8 over Austria's Alexander Erler and German Andreas Mies.
