The best Bulgarian tennis player, Grigor Dimitrov, said that Novak Djokovic is the favorite in the upcoming match between the two of them in the third round of the Australian Open. The Bulgarian has had just one win in ten matches so far against Djokovic, who is a nine-time champion in Melbourne. Dimitrov’s victory against Djokovic dates back to May 2013 and took place in Madrid.

"He is a serious player, but I love such situations. That's why we play tennis, to meet the best. I wouldn't settle for less. I believe I can win," Dimitrov said.
