How Roger Federer has caused major problems for Grigor Dimitrov

Grigor Dimitrov has found it hard being compared to Roger Federer but his best is yet to come, according to his recently appointed coach Andre Agassi. “It's a hard thing for anybody to be compared with Federer,” Agassi said. “There might have been a modelling of his game, but Fed plays with a lot of wrists, you know, Grigor hits through the strike zone a lot straighter. “I believe that he has not seen his best tennis. He had some great results, but he's yet to feel what it's like to really build on a foundation that keeps taking him in the same direction and that has to do not just with tennis, but with how you approach every day.” “He puts a lot of pressure on himself daily to be what he expects from himself,” he added. “This is a double-edged sword. What he can do with a tennis ball is remarkable. Physically speaking, as impressive as Novak is, this man is also equally as impressive. Novak is incredibly dangerous even defensively, off both wings. This is a little bit different. But the movement, the versatility, I believe that his best is yet to come.”
