"Maybe it will take just one big win or one big week": Murray on potential turning points for Thiem

Andy Murray talked about Dominic Thiem and his grind to return back to where he was being able to pull from his own experiences in the past several years.

Dominic Thiem is experiencing what Murray did in the past few years and that's a very painful return to his best days. While Murray likely will never hit his peak again, the Brit still improved dramatically from where he was when he started his comeback after numerous injuries. Thiem had a traumatic injury as well missing almost a year of tennis and it's been very shaky since then.

When asked about it, Murray said:

"For Thiem, it's really hard when you've been out for such a long time. Wrist injuries are obviously always tricky. I don't know the ins and outs of the injury. Some of it, you know, can be psychological and maybe it will take just one big win or one big week to turn that around."

His hope is that Thiem will return to his best because he was a player that was regularly challenging for majors and that's where he belongs:

"But I hope that he can because he was challenging for Majors very regularly before the injury and there's one specific shot that he's struggling on now. For the rest of his game, there's not a huge change physically. He still moves extremely well and everything. So I hope that he can get back to the level that he was at, but it's not easy."
