Ancien vainqueur en Grand Chelem, Dominic Thiem mettra un terme à sa carrière en fin d’année, a annoncé l’Autrichien vendredi, tracassé par des blessures à répétition au poignet.

Dominic Thiem, 30 ans, a disputé quatre finales dans des tournois du Grand Chelem, remportant l’US Open en 2020, le propulsant au 3e rang mondial, son meilleur classement en carrière.

L’Autrichien espère pouvoir faire ses adieux chez lui au tournoi de Vienne en octobre.

«Ã‚ C’est un message très important, très triste et très beau que cette saison soit ma dernière », a déclaré Thiem dans une vidéo postée sur les réseaux sociaux vendredi. « Il y a plusieurs raisons à cela : tout d’abord, bien sûr, mon poignet. Il n’est pas exactement comme il devrait être et comme je le souhaite. La deuxième raison est mon sentiment intérieur : je réfléchis à cette décision depuis très longtemps », a commenté Dominic Thiem, finaliste à Roland-Groos en 2018 et 2019 et finaliste encore à l’Open d’Australie en 2020.

Moins d’un an après, Thiem a commencé à souffrir du poignet l’écartant du circuit pour 10 mois et le faisait redescendre à la 350e place mondiale. L’Autrichien est certes revenu dans le top 100 l’an dernier, mais n’est jamais parvenu à retrouver son meilleur niveau.

«Ã‚ J’ai eu du succès et décroché des trophées dont je n’aurais jamais rêvé. C’était un parcours incroyable. En fin de compte, je suis arrivé à la conclusion que cette décision de mettre fin à ma carrière à la fin de cette saison était la seule bonne. Mon amour pour le tennis ne mourra jamais », a ajouté Dominic Thiem, actuellement 117e au classement ATP, vainqueur de 17 titres au cours de sa carrière dont le Masters 1000 d’Indian Wells en 2019.

Il a également disputé deux finales du Masters à Londres.
