?ori? is a defensive baseliner. He is very solid and consistent from primarily the backhand wing, but has shown some improvement from the forehand wing in 2018, and this improvement was praised in his defeats of Roger Federer in both the 2018 Halle final and Shanghai Masters semi-final. However, he continues to struggle hitting forehand groundstrokes in defensive positions or on the run. He has great coordination and footwork, thus allowing him to move well laterally on the court. His style of play lends itself to having long rallies and wearing down his opponent from the baseline. Due to the fact that he's born left-handed but plays on his right hand, the strengths in his game are in his movement and his two-handed backhand. His forehand, with his long takeback and tendency to break down under the stress of an opponent's offence, has been cited as an area of possible focus in the future.
In addition, he also possesses a strong and precise serve, which enables him to win a lot of easy points. That in turn, helps to preserve his energy for return games and outlast opponents in long rallies, in order to break their serve. He is punishing to players who drop the ball short, allowing him to take the ball on the rise and turn defense into offence effectively, earning him comparison to Novak Djokovic. He has been lauded for his impressive mental fortitude in tough situations.
His past coaches have been ?eljko Krajan (2014-2015), Thomas Johansson (2015), Miles Maclagan (2016), Ivica An?i? (2016-2017), Riccardo Piatti (2017-2019),[165][166][167][168], Antonio Vei? (2019-2020).[169] and Martin ?t?pánek (2020-2021).[170][171] He is currently coached by Mate Delic.
?ori? began playing tennis at age 5 after watching his father Damir play.[172] He has one sister, Bruna. His idols growing up were Goran Ivani?evi? and Rafael Nadal. His favorite surface is outdoor hard. If he wasn't a tennis player, he would be a boxer. His favorite sports personality is Mike Tyson, whom he met at the 2016 BNP Paribas Open. Enjoys spending time at the pool. In June 2020, ?ori? tested positive for COVID-19 after attending the Adria Tour.[173]
