Grigor Dimitrov said goodbye to Wimbledon 2026 with a mix of frustration and hope. The Bulgarian fell in five sets to the tournament's great revelation, Arthur Fery, and bluntly acknowledged that the Briton was better in crucial moments. Without making excuses, he accepted the defeat and delivered a clear message about his ambition: "The goal of winning a Grand Slam has never disappeared".

Furthermore, the Bulgarian delved into his matches and those moments that ended up costing him the victory. "I made too many mistakes, simply too many," admitted Dimitrov, who regretted not being able to capitalize on the leads he had during the match. "When I was ahead, I was unable to consolidate that advantage. My concentration wasn't as good as I wanted it to be. I could sit here and give you another fifteen reasons why I lost, but this is the reality."

Dimitrov and the million-dollar question: Will he ever win a Grand Slam?

The former world number three also wanted to highlight Arthur Fery's level, whom he claimed to know well. "I wasn't surprised; I knew he is a fighter who battles until the end. When the crucial moments came, he was the one who seized the match," he explained, before congratulating the Briton on a victory he described as "unforgettable".

Dimitrov admitted that the defeat "will hurt for a while", though he also chose to focus on the positive feelings after a tournament that represents a step forward after physically challenging months. "I can't flip a switch after 52 weeks and expect to play amazing tennis. Now I have to fight even harder than before," he reflected.

The Bulgarian hinted that he might reduce his schedule to better take care of his body. "I have to be much more selective with everything I do on and off the court. The older you get, the more work you need to stay at the top level." Despite the elimination, Dimitrov remains optimistic. "Will I win a Grand Slam? I don't know. But I keep giving myself chances to achieve it. I will keep trying," he concluded with conviction.
