“When you connect with a boy like Dominic who has the same feeling and trains with great intensity…you don’t have to say anything because he is giving his best version,”

“I knew that he would improve on hard courts with some minor tweaks to his game. But he is very receptive and always looking to improve. He is a very good guy, an example for all kids,” Massu said.

Taking momentum from 2020, Thiem is looking towards a higher 2021. Ranking wise he can break the top two with the Australian Open 2021 triumph. Further, with his increased pedigree on hard court Grand Slams, Thiem has hit his peak. Do you think Thiem will win another Grand Slam in 2021?
