Bulgaria's Dimitrov Dreams of Winning Grand Slam

Bulgarian rising tennis star Grigor Dimitrov has named winning a Grand Slam tournament as his ultimate goal in life.

“I think this is the ultimate thing you can have as a tennis player. Of course, it’s a great thing if you get to the top 10 and hang out there and be one of the highest players out there. But definitely winning a slam is another level and another experience,” Dimitrov said in an interview for The Tennis Space.

The young Bulgarian admitted that he has been struggling with cramping.

“I have no idea why I’m cramping. I feel great – next day I feel like I can play again but the legs just don’t want to do it – and I do. As for my legs – some people say they’re too skinny – I can’t grow them, I’m sorry. I’m squatting 120 kilos but they just don’t grow. I’m sorry,” Dimitrov, 22, said ahead of his first round match at Wimbledon.

Upon asked to comment on his relationship with Maria Sharapova, he said he would like to keep his private life private.

“To me the most important is what I do on the court, and this is what I do and this is my passion,” he said.
