Grigor Dimitrov, the Bulgarian boilermaker, has again been showing the world his serious tennis devotion.
Grigor Dimitrov used his Wilson Six.One Tour BLX tennis racket to reach the finals of the ATP Challenger in Orleans, France, achieving a career high rank, making him the youngest player in the top 120 on the ATP World Tour.
It has been another great week of tennis for Dimitrov, defeating ATP Tour World #73 Lacko and scoring an important semifinal win over ATP Tour World #32 Michael Llodra, before being edged out by Nicolas Mahut 2-6 7-6 7-6 in the tournament's final.
Powered by his Wilson BLX racket, Dimitrov’s New Orleans results marks his seventh final of the year and brings him one step closer to reaching his year end goal of being in the top 100.
“Grigor is an amazing talent and has often been touted as the ‘Next Roger Federer.’ Those are high expectations,” said Wilson Global Director Massimo Calvelli. “It’s really nice to see Grigor start coming into himself and mold his own game. The possibilities are endless for Grigor and the Wilson Team looks forward to continuing to help him reach his goals.”
Dimitrov will play the Eckental ATP Tour Challenger next week.
