Bulgarian youngster Grigor Dimitrov is currently the second most skilled male tennis player in the world, according to Bleacher Report.

The website has remindedd that Grigor Dimitrov’s style is often compared to that of Roger Federer.

“Dimitrov has the same variety as Federer with his one-handed backhand, able to drive it with topspin or direct it with slice. Dimitrov's forehand is a weapon as well. He has Federer-caliber touch on lobs and drop shots. He can volley effectively. In a single point, Dimitorv can display a complete arsenal.” Bleacher Report says.

Federer is the world’s most skilled player, according to the website. Novak Djokovic is No. 3, followed by Michael Llodra, Bernard Tomic, Andy Murray, Alexandr Dalgopolov, Jurgen Melzer, Rafael Nadal and Benoit Paire.

Bleacher Report has noted that the most skilled male players are not necessarily the best players on the ATP Tour, since attributes such as athleticism, power, endurance, decision-making, confidence, experience and will also play vital roles.
