World Number Three, Dominic Thiem is a fan of the Adria Tour and is looking forward to being involved in the event which was planned by Novak Djokovic who previously revealed his plans to host it between June 13 - July 5.

The Adria Tour which will involve both Thiem and Djokovic will take place across four Balkan countries and the money raised will be donated to humanitarian projects.

"I think that a very important and good idea is that the Adria Tour is a humanitarian event. There are many people, but also organisations, who need help, especially in difficult times like this.

As far as I am concerned, I am participating in an important project in Austria, and I hope that we will raise as much money as possible, so that I can continue to support and help them," Thiem said, per Sport Klub.

He also discussed his relationship with Djokovic and praised him highly. For the Austrian, he hopes to use it as an opportunity to get to know him more.

"It is clear that Novak is not only one of the best tennis players in the world of all time, but he is also one of the best athletes on the planet ever.

We have a very good relationship on and off the court. Djokovic is one of the guys I usually meet on the ATP tour. We’ve played some great matches, like the Grand Slam finals, the Masters 1000, the ATP Finals, and it’s always an exceptional experience when I meet him.

Privately, Novak is a great guy, but I don’t know him well enough. So I hope that during the Adria tour we will have the opportunity to get to know each other better," Thiem added.
