Tennis superstar Boris Becker has predicted more than bright future for Bulgaria rising tennis star Grigor Dimitrov.

"I see Grigor as the next big star in top 10," the legendary tennis player said in an interview for Eurosport from his new home and capital of Europe – London.

“He has star quality and he plays the game the right way.

"When I saw him in Monte Carlo playing Nadal for a second I thought he was the young Federer. He has a similar style, and I think his future is golden.”
