Tim: “I really like Tsitsipas, I can’t wait for the game”
Dominic Thiem has praised Stefanos Tsitsipas, who he will meet on Saturday (April 29) in the second round of the Madrid Open, as an “incredible player”.
Dominic Thiem spoke about the showdown on Saturday (April 29) against Stefanos Tsitsipas after the Austrian’s victory at the Madrid Open in the first round over Kyle Edmund.
“I’m looking forward to the game. I like him a lot (ss Tsitsipas), he’s an amazing player. I love watching his games. We’ve had some great games in the past and at the ATP Finals.
Our last meeting on earth was 5 years ago. It was long ago. Since then, we’ve also played in the Roland Garros final twice. I hope I’m fine and have a very good game,” said the former world No. 3 and two-time finalist in Madrid (2017, 2018).
The last time Tsitsipas Thiem hit clay was in Roland Garros 2018 when the Austrian prevailed in 4 sets in the 2nd round of the tournament. Their last meeting came at the ATP Finals in London, where Thiem won 7-6(5), 4-6, 6-3 in the group stage.
