Dimitrov’s friendship with the Williams sisters is no secret. Additionally, they have always praised each other’s games and even practiced with each other on a number of occasions. During the Rolex Paris Masters in 2021, Venus Williams was in awe of the Bulgarian’s game, saying, “My friend is flying.”

Dimitrov’s 2022 season

The 30-year-old has had a disappointing start to this season. After a barren run over the past few seasons, Dimitrov was eager to make a mark with a strong start this year. However, he lost against lower-ranked Maxime Cressy in the Melbourne Summer Set, his first tournament this year.

Further, in the Australian Open, he bowed out of the tournament in the second round, losing to the Frenchman Benoit Paire. Subsequently, he made early exits in Delray Beach and Acapulco. His inconsistent form has resulted in him dropping out of the top-30 in the ATP rankings. He is currently stationed at Number 35 in the world.
