Dimitrov has the edge on Kyrgios in spectacular Australian Open encounter

Nick Kyrgios has bowed out of the Australian Open in the fourth round, losing in an arm wrestle with world number three Grigor Dimitrov.

Kyrgios and Dimitrov traded blows in an electrifying encounter, with the Bulgarian ultimately triumphing 7-6 (7-3), 7-6 (7-4), 4-6, 7-6 (7-4) on Rod Laver Arena.

The result means Australia has no more players involved in either the men's or women's singles draws.

More to come.
