So it's a great package deal."Dimitrov, a former world number three who is currently down at 47 in the world, won the last of his eight career titles at the ATP Finals in 2017.His Grand Slam best performance remains a semi-final run at Wimbledon in 2014.However, he has yet to reach the second week at Roland Garros.
