Grigor Dimitrov has opted for a change in his team ahead of the 2023 season as he hired former Andy Murray coach Jamie Delgado to help him get back to the top.
Dimitrov has played a few lacklustre seasons lately never being able to crack the top 10 again and he's planning on changing that in 2023. He hired former Murray coach Jamie Delgado to help him do that. As Dimitrov had already hired Valverdu before that, Delgado becomes the second member of Murray's team to join Dimitrov.
Dimitrov is excited about next year as he explained in the ATP Radio Podcast:
"I have had better years, but I am not allowed to complain. I think that despite the fact that I could have had better results in certain tournaments, I am very atleast that I put myself out there again and again. I am also trying to build in a bit more of momentum. I think overall in the past three to four months have been tough with injuries and things that I have to take care of. Yeah, I had to simply go one at a time and of course, now the body feels good, which is pretty good. I am really looking forward to starting my offseason a little bit earlier and have a good crack at 2023."
He added:
"I think I definitely need some time off just to take for myself, just to reflect, I think on the year, on a lot of other things that I think I have been working on and on my body, on my game and so on. First and foremost, I will try to restructure the team a little bit. What I want is still to improve. I’ve done thirteen off seasons so I think I know the ins and outs pretty good but always like to re-assess and think what is our goal this time and maybe even try some new things."
