Borna Coric defeated Dominic Thiem in the Davis Cup and he backed him to return to the top 10 where he belongs despite not being able to find a good rhythm recently.
Thiem's struggles after his wrist injuries are well known as he's yet to fully string together several good performances. He plays well at times but generally, it's been a struggle and nowhere near his best from a few years ago. Coric has no worries about that as he believes that Thiem will be back there:
"I am sure Domi [Thiem] will be back in top 10 soon."
The match itself was a solid one as Coric only found a breakthrough late in the first set - tiebreak. The second was much easier for Coric 6-2 but it was a good effort from the Austrian as he continues to work his way into form.
