The ATP and
WTA have collaborated to produce a series of videos titled CrossCourt, in which players from each organization come together to talk about life on Tour. The latest episode features former World No.3
Grigor Dimitrov and Tokyo Olympics gold medalist
Belinda Bencic sit down to discuss their travel routines and favorite destinations.
Dimitrov spoke about what he likes to have in his hotel room, with items ranging from a PlayStation gaming system, rackets to even roses.
“I love to have flowers in the hotel room a lot. For some reason I love flowers, I don’t know why. There’s a little secret: I love flowers,” Dimitrov said. “I just love red roses, for example. It brings some sort of a romance to the room. You know how much time we spend in the room… it’s nice to feel nice and cozy.”
Bencic touched on the troubles of constantly being on the move, stating she did not enjoy the packing and long flights.
"Traveling week-in and week-out is not always easy," revealed Bencic. “For me personally I have to say it’s the hardest part of everything. I love to be at the different places. But for me, the traveling, for me that’s the hardest part especially week to week,” she said. “It’s not even the long flights. It’s the packing, unpacking.”
