Ultimate Tennis Showdown: Dominic Thiem well in the race, but ...

Dominic Thiem has the second best win rate at Patrick Mouratoglou's Ultimate Tennis Showdown after three weekends. However, it is quite possible that in the end it will not be enough for a place in the top four of the preliminary round.

So far, Dominic Thiem has coped well with the deadline stress

Dominic Thiem would like to have the worries of Stefanos Tsitsipas : The Greek leads the table with 5: 1 victories after six match days at the Ultimate Tennis Showdown in the academy of Patrick Mouratoglou. And the only problem with Tsitsipas seems to be that he can bring Justin Timberlake's “Mirrors” to some extent until the coming weekend. The only defeat for the ATP world champion of 2019 was against that Thiem, who is actually in second place with a win rate of 75 percent. The Austrian did two matches less, thanks to the lightning trip to Belgrade for Novak Djokovic's Adria tour.

Thiem in Berlin against Zverev - and Kyrgios?

In the current week Dominic Thiem is free from playful obligations, probably word physio Alex Stober will come to Vienna to put the emphasis on physical regeneration with his protégé. Because it won't be much less in the near future: On Saturday and Sunday Nice is again at sea level and hard court, from Tuesday then Kitzbühel far above sea level and on ashes. Actually until Saturday, July 11th. It remains to be seen whether Thiem will then jet off to southern France for a day.

Because things are moving on, literally: bett1Aces are starting in Berlin from Monday, July 13th to Sunday, July 19th. With a prominent female cast, such as Petra Kvitova, Elina Svitolina or Julia Görges. But also with Dominic Thiem. And Alexander Zverev. And Nick Kyrgios, who recently did not hold back his comments to his potential Berlin playmates. And with the third surface that Thiem has used on these turbulent days: lawn.
