Nadal unseeded at a tournament for the first time in 19 years
Who is behind 6:9 in the head-to-head, but won the last two games: at the end of 2020 at the ATP Finals and at the beginning of the same year at the Australian Open, when he brought Nadal to his knees in the quarter-finals, and later only in the final lost to Novak Djokovic. Although the signs are completely different this year. At that time, Nadal was leading the world rankings and Thiem was in fifth place. Today the second is 98th, the Spaniard is only 672nd, unseeded at a tournament in Brisbane for the first time in 19 years. Because he hasn’t played a game since January 18th last year after a hip injury.
