“I like fish. Twice a week, have meat. I actually like sugar — chocolate chip cookies, ice cream, basic chocolate. I love it, but I’m not dependent to the extent that I’m like: «Oh my god, I need to have it otherwise I’ll start shaking». During tournaments, I’m very disciplined. “

AS you can see, Grigor Dimitrov is not very strict with regard to his diet when he is not playing a tournament. However, when he is playing, he knows that his nutrition has to be perfect. This is why the Bulgarian has been so successful throughout his career.

So far, he has won 8 titles with one of them being the ATP Finals in 2017. He has reached the semi-finals at 3 of the 4 Majors and he has reached a career-high ranking of World No. 3. He is only 29 years old which is why he is probably going to achieve more in the future.
