#GameSetMattek: Grigor Dimitrov on playing in Bulgaria—and skin care

Dimitrov and Bethanie had no shortage of things to talk about.

Published Aug 30, 2017

Defending US Open doubles champion Bethanie Mattek-Sands has long been a charismatic and beloved member of the traveling tennis circus. But during Wimbledon, she suffered a major injury that even threatened to end her career. While Bethanie recovers, she’s here in New York with #GameSetMattek—taking us behind the scenes with exclusive access to many members of the tennis community.

The majority of Bethanie’s conversations with players have ranged between two and three minutes in length, but she went a little longer with Grigor Dimitrov.

And who can blame her? He’s a brilliant tennis player, has varied interests and is quite charming.

Among the topics of discussion were skin care—coconut oil has many great benefits, apparently—playing in front of his home fans in Bulgaria and, in keeping with the theme of #GSM, motivation.
