Grigor Dimitrov, who lost in the first round at Roland Garros and in the second round at Queen's, said that he is trying to be more positive.

"It's just a shame that I had to go down that way again, but as I said, I'm very positive," said Dimitrov about his loss at Roland Garros. "I'm happy what I'm doing on the practice court [in Queen's] and I'm staying healthy.

"I mean, this is just a good, solid base for me.  One of the biggest tournaments is around the corner."

Currently ranked No. 11, Dimitrov has done little this season other than reaching the semifinal in Brisbane at the start of the year, and the fourth round at the Australia Open, where he lost to Andy Murray. On clay, he reached the quarterfinals in Monte Carlo, falling to Gael Monfils, and the semifinals at an ATP 250 at Istanbul, but fell in the second round of Rome.

Playing in Queen's on grass, Dimitrov lost to Gilles Muller. Last year, the Bulgarian was having the best season of his career so far, reaching the semifinals at Wimbledon.  
Dimitrov, who will not play next week, said that recently he has gone up against some tough competitors.  
"I'm just going to get a little bit of a rest and just get out on the practice court and just keep working," he said. "This is pretty much the best thing I can do right now. There's not much else to think about. I've just gotta go out there and perform. I felt I have been quite unlucky in the past weeks with a lot that has been going on, and it's something that actually accept and I need to fight through."
