Bulgaria’s tennis star Grigor Dimitrov has revealed that his parents missed seeing him win the first title since 2017 due to flight times.
The 32-year-old won his first ATP title in six years after defeating Denmark’s Holger Rune in the final of the Brisbane International in straight sets with a score of 7-6(5), 6-4.
Dimitrov was recently quoted in a report where he revealed how his parents missed watching him lifting an ATP title after six years because of the flight timings.
"I told them goodbye before the match and I was checking the clock a few times to see if I would finish the match a little earlier but unfortunately it was not that easy,” said the current world number 14.
"But it's been amazing to have them around the past two to three weeks. They have to go back to work, have to go back to their own lives. I think we have a great balance the way we see each other. I'm going to try to make that happen more throughout the year."
“It’s been a while since I held one of these, it’s a bit emotional. My love affair started here many years ago in Brisbane and it continues. I’m very thankful to lift the trophy again.”
