Take note – story published 5 years ago

Ernests Gulbis continued his return to top form July 7 at the Wimbledon tennis tournament in London with one of his best ever victories over world number 3 Alexander Zverev of Germany in another five-set epic, emerging as the winner 7-6, 4-6, 5-7, 6-3, 6-0.

Latvia's former top ten player (back in 2014) is currently ranked 138th in the world, though last year he slipped out of the top 500.

Gulbis now advances to the last 16 of the competition to meet 24th seed, Kei Nishikori of Japan on Monday.
