In an exclusive interview for BTA, Bulgaria's best tennis player Grigor Dimitrov said he feels ready for Australian Open, which begins in Melbourne on January 15. "I like this tournament, the conditions are good, I feel good here," he said.

He has been training in Melbourne since Wednesday, after winning his first tournament for the season, ATP 250 Brisbane International on January 7. With a strong end of 2023 and of the current campaign, the Bulgarian tennis player climbed to No. 13 in the world rankings.

"I have been feeling well in the last months, my efforts are bearing fruit. I am very thankful to every single person on my team: we work well and the results are coming," Dimitrov noted.

"Brisbane is a good start of this year and a good preparation for next week. It is important to improve my game and my physical form daily, the results come after." I believe that persistence pays off, I feel ready for a good season, and we will see what happens," he commented. In his words, winning Brisbane International means a lot to him for different reasons. "I am happy that my parents were next to me and it was nice to share the emotions in this tournament with them," he added.
