Dominic Thiem may not return to the ATP tour until qualifying for the French Open. The 30-year-old from Lower Austria canceled his trip to Rome after his second-round defeat a week ago in qualifying for the Masters 1000 tournament in Madrid against Thanasi Kokkinakis (AUS).
It would be possible to play at the ATP tournament in Geneva before Paris. But only if he gets a wildcard for Roland Garros.
Dominic Thiem’s plans for the near future
The all-clear has been given by Austria’s number one, Sebastian Ofner, who was last eliminated in round one in Madrid and was physically weak. “Ofi had problems with his neck, it was a bit sore. Now he’s doing well again,” explained his manager Moritz Thiem.
Ofner’s appearance at the Foro Italico in Rome (from May 8th) is certain, and he may play before the French Open in Geneva. In Paris, last year’s round of 16 will be in the main competition. Thiem is preparing for his next assignment in Traiskirchen and Oberpullendorf.
