Antwerp, Aug. 31, 2023 – The European Open is pleased to announce the arrival of talented Austrian tennis player Dominic Thiem. Thiem, currently ranked 81st in the world rankings, is working determinedly to regain his former top level.

Thiem, who previously reached the semifinals of the European Open, is determined to continue his comeback and improve his world ranking position. His single-handed backhand, which has become a signature aspect of his style of play, makes tennis hearts beat faster.
One of the most memorable moments in Thiem’s career was his victory at the 2020 grandslam, where he put up an epic fight against Zverev. The fifth set of the match culminated in a nerve-wracking tiebreak that kept fans around the world glued to the screen. This victory highlights Thiem’s determination and mental toughness, traits that will undoubtedly contribute to his success at the upcoming European Open.
Dick Norman, tournament director of the European Open. “That we can once again add Dominic Thiem to our list of players is a great honor. He is proving in recent months and also this week at the US Open that he is bouncing all the way back. His nickname Dominator says it all: his tenacity on court is inspiring, his presence will certainly increase the intensity of the tournament. We are delighted to welcome him back and look forward to great tennis matches with him.”
