Grigor Dimitrov finds himself in hot water during Team Europe’s press conference. A journalist with probably a huge crush on the Bulgarian superstar reminds him of what he promised if Team Europe wins the Laver Cup. Carlos Alcaraz and Alexander Zvereve’s incredible performances helped the team to make a stunning comeback from going down by 4- 8 at the end of the second day. Now, since Team Europe has already secured their fifth title, is it time for Dimitrov to deliver his promise?
As soon as this journalist asked Grigor Dimitrov, “Grigor do you remember what you were supposed to do after winning the cup (laughs)?“, several players, including Carlos Alcaraz, couldn’t stop their laughter. They were heard saying, “Oh she wants to see, she wants to see…” Dimitrov looked a bit confused and asked the journalist, “What was my promise?” The journalist replied, “Now you’ll remember me for the rest of your day.“
Dimitrov told her, “I don’t even remember.” Everyone inside the room was having fun, but Dimitrov looked embarrassed. The journalist then clarified the matter by saying, “Well not me it was Sascha actually.” Hearing his name popping up in this hilarious scene, Alexander Zverev said, “I don’t remember what it was actually.” Alcaraz went on to remind him, “You said walking around naked or something like that..” Then Dimitrov replied, “I was just naked in the locker room. Did I say that guys, really?“

That’s how the hilarious incident transpired during the press conference. So let’s now take a look at what Grigor Dimitrov had said during the previous interview. After seeing him showcasing his crazy ‘striptease’ moves with Novak Djokovic during an exhibition match in Bulgaria, one reporter had previously asked if we were going to witness a similar moment in Berlin as well. His reply was, “I was hoping you’re not going to mention that one. I don’t know. I’ll let the boys decide on that.“
