Thiem splits with long-time coach Nicolas Massu following Estoril Open, won 2020 US Open as a partnership
ATP
Dominic Thiem had some positives to take from his week at the Millennium Estoril Open but also some negatives as he continues his comeback trail and perhaps the latter is splitting with his long-time coach, Nicolas Massu after the tournament has concluded.
Under his guide, Thiem sealed the 2020 US Open as well as 2019 Indian Wells and was runner-up twice in the ATP Finals and Australian Open once.
He made him a top three hardcourt player during the peak of his powers albeit with his injury struggles between that up until this point.

"What an incredible journey," wrote Thiem. "It all started in early 2019, you came along with your incredible energy and extreme love for the sport."
"But unfortunately everything has an end and this end came now. We have decided together that we will go different ways starting next week. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this incredible and beautiful time Nico. I wish you only the best and our friendship will last forever."
