After a few quiet years, the ‘One-Handed Backhand Greats’ of tennis are once again in the headlines. Several years ago, the trio of Roger Federer, Grigor Dimitrov, and Tommy Haas displayed their singing talent as they performed as a band. Six years after the formation of the group, tennis fans were eagerly waiting for the ‘backhand boys’ to take center stage once again. Now, the wait might be over.

Recently, Grigor Dimitrov talked about the possibility of reforming the band with the 41-year-old tennis legend. While the 32-year-old Bulgarian tennis player is currently playing in the Shanghai Masters, he fueled the hope among fans of having a unique reunion.

Grigor Dimitrov shares the possibility of having a band reunion with Roger Federer 

The 19th-ranked tennis player in the world is currently playing in the Shanghai Masters, where he defeated Nicolas Jarry to reach the semifinals of the tournament. But during a post-match press conference, the 32-year-old was first asked whether he would consider a possible reunion with the Swiss legend and Tommy Haas

He said, “I cherish those moments so much that, maybe we’ll come up with something when you guys least expect it. As we regrouped here, we thought we could do it again, but this time kind of on a playback, making the boys actually sound nice and not like cats and dogs singing, like in Australia. Now it sounds somewhat okay. It’s still so bad, yet I think it’s actually so good.”

In addition, the former world No.3 hysterically asserted that even after the bandmates parted ways, they still kept tabs on each other’s lives. The band was introduced nearly 6 years ago when they took social media by storm during the 2017 Indian Wells Masters. The three tennis superstars sang the 80s classic, ‘Hard To Say I’m Sorry.’ 

While a reunion might be on the cards, the former German tennis player shared interesting details about his musical partnership with Federer.

When Haas revealed amazing insights into the musical partnership 

Six years down the lane, after they first formed the band, Haas still carries a lot of fond memories. During a podcast interview, he was asked about singing the Chicago song that took the tennis world by storm six years ago. But he said, “I’m not allowed. It’s not in the contract. I can only sing those words with Grigor and Roger.”
