The time during 2019-20 was complicated for Dominic Thiem [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/dominic-thiem/] especially with regards to his coaches. He first parted ways with Gunter Bresnik after a 17-year long partnership. And later split with Thomas Muster [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Muster] after working together for just a couple of weeks. Check out what he said about them.

[https://cdn.images.express.co.uk/img/dynamic/72/590x/Dominic-Thiem-1236137.jpg?r=1580517623803] DOMINIC THIEM ON HIS COACHES The split with Gunter Bresnik was not great for Dominic Thiem. He worked with Gunter since he was 9 which is why both sides did not process the split very well. They both made statements against each other and it seems like they have not repaired their relationship yet. In a recent interview with Der Standard, Dominic was asked about this. He was hesitant to talk about it as he said, “I ask for your understanding, but I do not want to talk about this topic at this point in time.” Moving on, he was also asked about his split with Thomas Muster. This split was not on bad terms which is why Thiem was open to talking about it. He said, “Everything would have been the same without a sample. I do not regret it, it was definitely worth a try, he is the Austrian tennis legend. It just didn’t work, it wasn’t a drama. I didn’t want to wait, so the split was made during the Australian Open.” ATP Rankings: Dominic Thiem breaks up Big Three dominance while ... [https://d2me2qg8dfiw8u.cloudfront.net/content/uploads/2020/01/29152424/Dominic-Thiem-celebrates-from-PA.jpg] Currently, the Austrian is working with Nicolas Massu who has helped him a lot, especially in improving his hard-court game. Under Massu, Thiem reached his first final at the Australian Open, coming close to winning it. Ultimately, he lost to Novak Djokovic [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/novak-djokovic] in a 5-set thriller. Thiem is clearly getting closer to winning his first Grand Slam. It may be at the French Open where he is a two-time finalist or at another Major like the Australian Open. But hopefully, he will win it and break the long-standing reign of the ‘Big 3’ at the Grand Slam tournaments. 

Dominic Thiem went through 2 coaches in less than a year. He has just opened up

<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.

Novak Djokovic

Novak Djokovic Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements 2023 Novak Djokovic Wimbledon 2023 The Serbian tennis legend Novak Djokovic set out to play a final that the entirety of the world had dreamt of for the past few months. Since the rise of Carlos Alcaraz, everyone wanted to watch a showdown between the two. They eventually met in the final of Wimbledon, which seemed to be in Djokovic&#8217;s favor. After the Serbian won the first set 6-1, he would lose two sets continuously, which made the score 6-1, 6-7(6), 1-6.

Alcaraz won the fifth set and showed why he topped the Pepperstone ATP rankings. After the gruesome match, Djokovic&#8217;s speech contained much praise for his opponent of the day. However, as he looked up at his son smiling in the stands, he could not compose himself anymore.? Djokovic cried and, as he gained composure, said, &#8220;I love you. Thank you for supporting me. I&#8217;ll give you a big hug &amp; we can all love each other. Thank you.&#8221; Novak Djokovic French Open Feat 2023 After a fantastic start to 2023, Djokovic seemed to falter. Not winning any back-to-back tournaments would not raise an eyebrow for any other player. But for Djokovic, it can become a big deal. The former World No.1 did not win any tournaments following the Australian Open. His best record was making it to the semifinal in the Dubai Tennis Championships.

In the Italian Open, he reached the quarterfinal but lost to Holger Rune. With the Djoker enduring a slump in form, many didn&#8217;t consider him to be a favorite for the French Open title. To worsen his odds, Nole was suffering from an injury prior to the clay season. But he would prove all of his doubters wrong as he went past each player with ease, only dropping two sets on his way to the final. In the final, he went on to win against Casper Ruud in straight sets. After lifting the trophy, he went one step above Nadal in the all-time grand slam race. Novak Djokovic Australian Open 2023- A victorious hardcourt season The Djoker began this year with an impressive win in the Adelaide International. He won the tournament while dropping just one set throughout the entire tournament. After that, it was time to reclaim his throne on the hard courts of Melbourne after an absence of one year. In 2022, Djokovic was deported from Australia as he failed to comply with vaccination rules.? This year, the event became a topic of discussion as the country had relaxed its vaccine rules which allowed Djokovic to play in the tournament. Unfortunately, he could not maintain a controversy-free stint.

Many questioned the nature of the injury, and it led to a topic of intense discussion among fans and pundits. Regardless of the issues, Djokovic won the Australian Open with great panache.

The Serbian ranks 23rd in the Forbes list of the world&#8217;s highest-paid athletes. Novak Djokovic early life Novak Djokovic began playing tennis when he was just four years old. Amidst difficult circumstances growing up, Djokovic still ended up as the best under-14 player from Europe and went on to shine the brightest on the ATP tour. The Serbian won his first Grand Slam title at the 2008 Australian Open as a 21-year-old. Coming to his personal life, Djokovic started dating Jelena Ristic in 2005, and the couple got engaged in 2013. A year later, they got married in &#8216;Sveti Stefan&#8217;, a hotel resort in Montenegro. The couple has two children &#8211; Stefan and Tara Djokovic. His parents are professional skiers, and his?brothers are professional tennis players. All of them are based in Serbia. Novak Djokovic&#8217;s tennis career (2001-2023) Djokovic started out on a successful path by becoming Europe&#8217;s top-ranked under-14 player and was also part of Serbia&#8217;s Junior Davis Cup event. His best record from the junior tour came at the Australian Open, where he reached the semifinals in 2004. Having been considered a player who made regular appearances in the semifinals at slams, Djokovic found his first major title at the 2008 Australian Open. 2011 was the year when the Serbian star truly started his dominance against two of his biggest rivals -?Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. Both these opponents frequently met Djokovic and were defeated by the Serb on most occasions. The Serb&#8217;s dominance continued even in 2021, where he won three Grand Slam titles and came close to winning an unprecedented Calendar Slam at the US Open. Tennis &#8211; ATP Finals Turin &#8211; Pala Alpitour, Turin, Italy &#8211; November 20, 2022 Serbia&#8217;s Novak Djokovic celebrates after winning the men&#8217;s singles final against Norway&#8217;s Casper Ruud REUTERS/Guglielmo Mangiapane The 2022 season was a little rocky for Djokovic. He had to withdraw from the Australian Open. He found himself eliminated in the French Open in the quarterfinal. But he would maintain his Wimbledon streak as he won the title against Nick Kyrgios. Following the theme of the first slam, he had to withdraw from the US Open due to vaccination rules.? In 2023, Djokovic would shine even brighter than before. Starting the year with a 10th Australian Open title meant that he now equaled Rafa&#8217;s record. After the event, he would win the French Open for the third time and make it his 23rd grand slam, officially the most in men&#8217;s singles. Unfortunately, he would lose his winning streak in Wimbledon as he lost against Carlos Alcaraz in the final.? Rivalries Over the years, Djokovic had numerous rivalries on-court against top-tier players. But, his match-ups against Federer, Nadal, and Andy Murray always enthralled fans and turned out to be engaging to watch. Out of the three big opponents Djokovic has had over the years, it was his rivalry with Nadal that stands out. The duo played 59 matches against each other on the ATP tour, and Djokovic leads the tally by winning 30 contests.

REUTERS/Sarah Meyssonnier Their most recent interaction came at the quarterfinals of the 2022 French Open. In an engaging three-set battle, the Spaniard breezed past the Serb and went on to clinch the Roland Garros title. Coming to Djokovic&#8217;s rivalry with Federer, it can be considered one of the most entertaining rivalries on the ATP tour. The duo had numerous close battles, but it is the Serb who takes the pivotal lead once again. Both Federer and Djokovic played 50 times on tour, with Djokovic winning 27 matches. Their most recent contest came in the semifinals of the 2020 Australian Open. Djokovic easily defeated Federer in straight sets. Against Murray, Djokovic had a rather comfortable rivalry as he was clearly the dominating player whenever they entered a tennis court. There were instances where Murray took control, but overall, it was the Serbian star who led the head-to-head with 25 victories compared to Murray&#8217;s 11.

The 16-year age gap makes no difference when the two players battle it out on the toughest stages. Alcaraz and Djokovic have faced each other three times. The Spanish rising star is in the lead; the only player in the rivalry to be above the Serbian. They first met in the 2022 Madrid Open, where Alcaraz won. Then in the current French Open, Djokovic got the better of the 2022 US Open champion. Their latest and third meet was in Wimbledon, where Alcaraz bested the legendary Serb in five sets. Legacy Novak Djokovic is one of the greatest tennis players of all time. He has 94 ATP titles and also has the highest Grand Slam count (23) on the ATP tour. He is also the only player in history to win all the Grand Slams at least twice. Shortly after winning his 18th Grand Slam at the Australian Open 2021, Novak Djokovic crossed Roger Federer in the most weeks as the World No.1 record. The 2021 season has been fruitful as well as a successful one for the year-end world number one. Djokovic started the year with his 9th Australian Open title at the 18th Grand Slam of his career. Djokovic won his 19th Grand Slam at French Open 2021 when he defeated Stefanos Tsitsipas in the final. Hence he completed his double career Grand Slam. En route to the title, he beat Rafael Nadal in the semifinals.
