2017 - 49-19 score on the Tour and the best season of his career so far! Grigor was one of the hottest players of the first part of the season, winning titles in Brisbane and Sofia and losing in an epic semi-final of Australian Open to Rafael Nadal. The spring run was not that good but Grigor quickly forgot about that, conquering Masters 1000 event in Cincinnati after holding serve in 52 out of 53 games to clinch his biggest title.
