One should actually assume that Grigor Dimitrov will start at his home tournament in Sofia this week, but the name of the local favorite is missing in the 28 grid, which is led by Jannik Sinner. Meanwhile, Dimitrov is playing in San Diego, where he will meet Félix Auger-Aliassime after beating Marton Fucsovics.
2017 Dimitrov won the title in the Bulgarian capital, it was the best year for the now 30-year-old. At the end of that season, the triumph at the ATP Finals in London was the greatest success in Dimitrov's career. And at the same time the last title so far. The last four years have not been easy for him, and things have not gone smoothly off the field either: Dimitrov brought a corona disease to his home in Monte Carlo from his participation in Novak Djokovic's Adria Tour. The regeneration bothered him a lot.
Dimitrov likes to be cozy
Just as one assesses Djokovic as a host, he read the participants' wishes from the lips in order to make their stay as pleasant as possible. In the case of Grigor Dimitrov, this means: lots of flowers in the hotel room. The Bulgarian revealed this in the latest edition of “Crosscourt” in an interview with Belinda Bencic . The overriding theme was traveling on the professional tour.
“I really love having flowers in my hotel room,” says Dimitrov. “For some reason I love flowers, I don't know why. Red roses, for example. it brings a certain kind of romance to a room. You know how much time we spend in our rooms. I like it when we are nice and cozy. "
