The 27-year-old recently provided an update on his wrist injury. The Austrian said he is in top physical condition and that it won’t take him much longer to return to the court.
Thiem is still harboring hopes of playing in the US Open, where he is the defending champion. But having withdrawn from the Canadian Open and the Cincinnati Masters, he faces the prospect of traveling to Flushing Meadows with no matches under his belt.
After the US Open, Thiem will also be defending titles at Indian Wells and Vienna. A good run from now until the end of the season will be crucial in his bid to qualify for the year-end ATP Finals. The 27-year-old has qualified for the season-ending event on five consecutive occasions.
You don’t have to make your private life public if you don’t want to: Dominic Thiem
During the course of the interaction, Thiem also answered questions about his private life. The Austrian, who is currently in a relationship with Lili-Paul Roncalli, believes fans and the media have to respect a person’s wishes to keep their personal life out of the limelight.
That said, the 27-year-old has never kept his relationship with Roncalli under wraps. The pair have been pictured together on numerous occasions, including at the Austrian Grand Prix earlier this year.
