and only Dominic Thiem!!
The Austrian professional star tennis player Dominic Thiem
was born on 3rd September 1993. He has spent his boyhood days in Lichtenberg,
which happens to be a small market town in Austria. Dominic
grew up with his younger brother, Maurice Thiem. He originally learned how to play tennis from his
dad, Wolfgang Thiem, who worked as a coach for the tennis team. To his surprise, Dominic soon fell
in love with tennis. It had soon become his passion,
his priority, and no longer a simple sport. And guess what! Soon by the passage of time,
he became so good that in March 2020, he was ranked as high as world number three in tennis
singles by the one and only ‘Association of Tennis Professionals.
Just the way everyone has a dark phase, Dominic Thiem also had one. He had reached almost three
Grand Slam finals, but luck did not favor him much in 2019 and 2020, where he had lost to Rafael
Nadal at the 2018 and 2019 French Open. And back in 2020, he lost to Novak Djokovic in the 2020
Australian Open. Despite his failure, Dominic Thiem never
gave up. He won 17 ATP tour singles titles and backed one Grand Slam title in the US Open.
He was regarded as the first Austrian to win the US Open
singles title and the first tennis male player born in the 1990s to claim a Grand Slam title.

Controversies Apart from all
the glamour in his life, Dominic Thiem also got involved in many controversies. A small
hiccup took place over a Red Bull can back in the 2020 Australian Open. Thiem personally prefers
drinking Red Bull as it helps him a lot on the court. However, there was an altercation that took
place. Dominic Thiem did not like the way the US Open officials handled and treated his request of
having Red Bull on the court, and that’s what made him more furious.
He had demanded Red Bull on the court, and the US Open officials bluntly denied giving him the can
as, according to the rules and regulations, the brand label should not be seen in the court due to
marketing reasons. The officials were willing to give him in plain glass, but the way they behaved
made Thieme furious. But apart from all such controversies,
Thieme's bottom line has become an inspiration to many
people through his methods and ideologies. Hope you liked our video. Do give us a thumbs up,
