Grigor Dimitrov is back on the court after a three-month absence due to the serious injury he suffered at Wimbledon. He will face French player Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard tonight in the first round of the Masters tournament in Paris with a prize pool of 6.1 million euros, BTA reports. The Bulgarian will also play in doubles, where his partner will be Nicolas Mahut.

Due to his long recovery from a pectoral muscle injury, the Bulgarian tennis player made a serious retreat in the world rankings and with an asset of 1,330 points, he occupies 38th place - his lowest ranking since August 25, 2019, when he was 78th.
