World No.4 Dominic Thiem hasn’t got a great start in the 2021 tennis season. He is yet to win a title this season and certainly hasn’t performed well. Interestingly, he has a 5-4 win-loss ratio at the moment which is quite disappointing for a player like him.

Dominic Thiem last played at the ATP Dubai 2021. After that, he suffered an unfortunate knee injury and missed the initial tournaments on clay like the Monte Carlo Masters 2021. However, it is evident that he has recovered from his injury now and will be playing at the upcoming Mutua Madrid Open 2021.

In a recent interview, Thiem revealed that the short break due to the injury was really good for him. The Austrian player stated that he needed that break but now, it is the time for him to return to the court.

“Yeah, I mean the break was good. I needed it too. But now it’s also time to come back. I think Madrid is a great place for me. I only have fond memories of that tournament,” said Thiem in the interview. (Translated by Google Translate)

The US Open 2020 winner reflected that Madrid is a great place for him. He mentioned that he has great memories of that place. Interestingly, Thiem ended up as the runner-up of the tournament in 2017 and 2018.

“Happy to be back here”- Dominic Thiem ahead of the Mutua Madrid Open 2021

Thiem feels that the conditions in Madrid suit him and are almost ideal for him. He highlighted that he has performed well at the tournament in the recent past which will be advantageous for him. Thus, he believes that he can play well in Madrid this year as well, especially after the break.

“The conditions are amazing for my game. The results have always been so good in recent years. I am happy to be back here and I hope I can play as well ,” added the World No.4 player.

It’ll be definitely intriguing to watch Dominic Thiem at the Mutua Madrid Open this year. Fans expect him to make a convincing comeback at the tournament after his return. Will Thiem be able to conquer Madrid this year after two failed attempts?
