World No.5 Dominic Thiem [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/dominic-thiem/] explains that he does not require painkillers to continue playing at the top as the season progresses and is not at this stage to play through pain. Dominic Thiem has worked his way to the top of the ATP circuit and has also been a consistent force on the tour, reaching the ATP World Tour Finals 2019 for the fourth consecutive time in his career. Dominic Thiem [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/images-98-5.jpeg] However, the Austrian divulged that he has been lucky with his body so far and has not reached a stage where he has to take painkillers like most of his fellow mates on the ATP Tour. In the pre-tournament press conference on the media day at the ATP World Tour Finals 2019 on Friday, Dominic Thiem said: “Unluckily not in that stage yet. First of all, I am still pretty young but not as young as many others in this tournament but still in the middle somehow.” Dominic Thiem [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/images-97-4.jpeg] He further added: “I am also very lucky with my body so far and I don’t have to play with painkillers yet so I hope that it still holds very long.” The fifth seed feels that he is currently playing some of his best tennis ahead of the final event of the season. After bowing out in the first round of the US Open 2019, where he was suffering from illness, Thiem made a turnaround and made an impressive come back on the ATP Tour. Dominic Thiem [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/images-99-4.jpeg] He won the 2019 China Open [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019_China_Open_(tennis)] in Beijing — where he defeated the former World No. 1 Andy Murray [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/andy-murray/], 2018 Rolex Paris Masters champion Karen Khachanov and Stefanos Tsitsipas [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/stefanos-tsitsipas/]. The 26-year-old then triumphed at the Erste Bank Open 2019, soaking the pressure of competing at home in Vienna. Dominic Thiem is drawn with the defending runner-up Novak Djokovic [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/novak-djokovic/], six-time champion Roger Federer and debutant Matteo Berrettini [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/matteo-berrettini/] in the Bjorn Borg group at the 2019 Nitto ATP Finals. He will open his campaign against Roger Federer [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/roger-federer/] on Sunday. The Austrian has improved his performance against the Top 10 ATP players in 2019 with 6-3 head-to-head. Before the 2019 season, Theim had a 15-32 head-to-head record against the Top 10 opponents. 

Dominic Thiem explains that he does not require painkillers to continue playing
at the top on the ATP Tour as the season progresses.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Dominic Thiem: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, and more</h2>
A first look at Dominic Thiem he gives the impression of a supermodel, and not a tennis player. However, amidst the domination displayed by the Big 3, Dominic Thiem has been able to carve a niche for himself, by winning not only major tournaments, but also the 2020 US Open, to go with back-to-back finalists at the French Open in 2018 and 2019. He has a net worth of $14 million and has amassed $30 million and more through tournament earnings.

Thiem also has some big brands under his belt, namely Adidas, Babolat, Red Bull, Kia, Sky Sport, and Rolex. In 2020, he added Duravit, a bathroom manufacturer, and also partnered with Neoh, a low carbohydrate protein bar startup. In an exclusive conversation with <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DAEyKTbsmM">Essentially Sports</a>, Dominic Thiem also spilled out some cheeky secrets.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Who is Dominic Thiem? </h2>
Born on September 3, 1993, Dominic Thiem is a professional tennis player who was born in Wiener Neustadt but resides in Lichtenworth, Austria. He is currently ranked 90th in the men’s ATP rankings but has been ranked as high as world number 3 in March 2020. His biggest triumph came at the 2020 US Open, where he defeated Alexander Zverev in the final. With the win, Thiem became the first male player born in the 1990s to win a tennis major and also the first Austrian to win the US Open slam. Overall, he has won 17 ATP singles titles and finished as runner-up three times (one at the Australian Open and two at the French Open), to go with losing two year-end ATP Finals. Thiem has been dating Lili Paul-Ronacli, a professional dancer and performer who hails from Germany. The couple started dating in 2019, and since then they have been together.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Dominic Thiem’s early life </h2>
Dominic Thiem took to tennis like fish to water, as both his parents - Wolfgang and Karin Thiem were tennis coaches themselves. The former world number 3 also has a younger brother, Moritz Thiem, who is also a professional tennis player. Dominic began playing tennis when he was six years old, and his father took a job at the Grunter Bresnik’s academy in Vienna in 1997. Bresnik began coaching Thiem at the age of nine and had previously worked with Boris Becker, Henri Leconte, Patrick McEnroe, and Ernest Gulbis. He is well-known for his unconventional techniques and recommended that Dominic convert his two-handed backhand into a single hand. Dominic parted ways with Bresnik in 2019, and since then has changed three coaches. He is currently coached by former Croation tennis player, Mate Delic. Thiem can speak three languages: German, French, and English.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Dominic Thiem’s girlfriend</h2>
Dominic Thiem is currently dating Lili Paul-Roncali, an exquisite artist and performer from Germany. The couple has been together for the last five years but only made their relationship public in January 2021. She is also the winner of a German reality dance show named ‘Let’s Dance’ in 2020 and has also written a couple of books. Before Lili, Dominic was in a relationship with Kristina Mladenovic, a professional tennis player from Dunkirk, France. Their relationship lasted for two years, and they both called it a split in 2019 and never opened up about the reason behind the split.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Dominic Thiem’s net worth 2024</h2>
A regular feature on the ATP circuit over the last decade or so, Dominic Thiem has an estimated net worth of $14 million. A major part of his salary and earnings come from the tournament’s prize money. As of March 2024, Thiem has collected $30,144,482 as prize money, which also takes him to the 12th spot when it comes to all-time earnings in the men’s category, a loss headed by Serbia’s Novak Djokovic. 
<h2 style="text-align: center">Dominic Thiem’s career </h2>
Dominic Thiem turned professional in 2011, after spending three years at the ITF Junior Circuit. He reached the highest ranking of number 2 in January 2011 and finished his junior career with a 115-33 record in singles and 49-32 in doubles.

It took Thiem three years to make it to his maiden ATP final, against the 2014 Austrian Open, at the age of 20. In the final, he lost to David Goffin. After a slow start to his career, Dominic raised the level and won three ATP titles in 2015. His rise continued as he made it to his maiden Grand Slam semifinal in 2015 at the French Open. His consistency was also rewarded as he entered the top 10 ATP rankings for the first time. He ended the year in the 8th position. In 2017, the results got better, as he once again made it to the semifinals of the French Open and made it to the fourth round of all the other three majors. The next two years witnessed Thiem raising the bar, especially on clay, as he pushed <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/rafael-nadal/">Rafael Nadal</a> in the final of the French Open, both in 2018 and 2019, but finished as the runner-up.

2020 was the best season for Dominic Thiem as a tennis player. The season was curtailed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but the Austrian tennis player registered 25 wins, compared to only nine losses. This also included his maiden Grand Slam title at the US Open in New York, in the final against <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alexander-zverev/">Alexander Zverev</a>. He also reached the finals of the Australian Open, losing to eventual champion Novak Djokovic. He reached the quarterfinals of the French Open and finished the season strong, as he made it to the final of the ATP Finals against <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/daniil-medvedev/">Daniil Medvedev</a>. During the season, he earned $6 million in prize money and also reached his career-best ranking of number 3, displacing <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/roger-federer/">Roger Federer</a>.

In 2021, Dominic Thiem reached the fourth round of the Australian Open but opted out of the Monte Carlo Masters, seeking a break. He struggled right through the clay season, exiting in the first round of the French Open. He then pulled out of Wimbledon owing to the wrist injury, and the same reason led him out of defending his US Open title in New York to recover completely from the injury.

Thiem made his comeback from a career-threatening wrist injury in March 2022 at the ATP Challenger in Marbella, Spain. After losing the first seven matches, he decided to opt out of the grass court season to work on his fitness. He later won matches in Salzburg and the Bastad Open and also made it to the semi-finals in Antwerp.

In 2024, Thiem participated at the Brisbane International, where he faced Spaniard Rafael Nadal and was beaten in straight sets. His Australian Open campaign was also cut short by Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime, who defeated him in Round 1 in a match that lasted for five hours and stretched to five sets. Thiem later turned out for Austria in the World Group-1 playoffs in the Davis Cup. He then participated in the UTS Tour in Oslo but had to withdraw later due to food poisoning.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Dominic Thiem’s partnerships and endorsements</h2>
The energetic Austrian is the first choice for leading brands and signed major partnerships off the tennis court. He enjoys signed contracts with Adidas, Babolat, Bank Austria, Rolex, Red Bull, Duravit, Technogym and Sky Sport.

Thiem isn’t much into automobiles but has some of the finest luxury wheels like the Ford and Range Rover. He also owns a house back home in Lichtenworth and is worth $1 million.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Dominic Thiem’s career stats</h2>
The Austrian tennis star, who turned pro in 2011, has participated in 555 matches so far in his career. This includes the ATP Tour, Grand Slams, and Davis Cup matches. Dominic Thiem has emerged victorious in 347 of them and lost 208 matches. This gives him a win percentage of 62.5 percent on the ATP tour, which displays his consistency levels, especially between 2016 and 2020. 
<h2 style="text-align: center">Dominic Thiem’s records</h2>
Over 13 years, Dominic Thiem has gotten the better of top players like Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, and others on several occasions. Especially on clay, he has been a consistent force to be reckoned with, but he has improved his play on hard courts as well.
