After suffering a humiliating defeat against Grigor Dimitrov at the Australian Open 2021, it appears as if Dominic Thiem has still not regained his momentum. He lost to Roberto Bautista Agut in the quarters of the Qatar Open 2021 in a close contest yesterday. The final scoreline of the match was 6-7, 6-2, 4-6.
Even though Dominic Thiem put up a great fight, he was not able to perform under pressure. He gave too many points away that led Roberto Bautista Agut to establish a healthy lead over him.
In the post-match interview, Thiem revealed that he was satisfied with his overall performance. However, he admitted that he could have played better in key moments. He also highlighted that his game is not in the right direction at the moment.
