There is a huge interest in the DIEMA XTRA Sofia Open tennis tournament, which will take place in the period 4 to 11 February in Arena Armeec Hall in Sofia. Just a month before the finals of the ATP 250 series on February 11, 70 percent of the tickets have been bought. More than 60% of the capacity for the semi-final games is also sold out. Grigor Dimitrov returns to Bulgaria, ambitious to win another title with the help of the Bulgarian audience, whom he thanked for the exceptional support in 2017. DIEMA XTRA Sofia Open Tournament head Paul McNamee thanked the fantastic Bulgarian fans for the huge interest.
