  • Intro:

    Australian Open 10th seed Grigor Dmitrov says he feels like an adopted Australian following his first round win under the guidance of coach Roger Rasheed.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: Grigor Dmitrov, Australian Open 10th seed
    Yeah, it was a good start for me. Of course, I expected it to be tricky. The conditions were good. Court was great. I think it was just a little tough for everyone to get into that rhythm, to get used to the court. It was pretty windy today, so, yeah, I think overall it's been a good start for me.

    SOUNDBITE: Grigor Dmitrov, Australian Open 10th seed (on having an Australian coach, Roger Rasheed, and if that brings him local support at the Open)
    I feel it help. I mean, I guess it does help, but I always felt good coming out of here and always had great support in Australia. Feel like an adopted Australian sometimes, especially when you come out on the court and you see all the fans cheering for you, which is great. It really helps you and boosts your confidence. It's just little different to play out here, and I like the vibe. All positives leaning on my side.
