Kitz star in the video
Berrettini: “I know what Thiem has been through”
Matteo Berrettini and Dominic Thiem have often crossed swords on the ATP court, but now it's over. In Kitzbühel, the 28-year-old Italian spoke about the end of the Lower Austrian's career. But see and hear for yourself in the video above.
"Every player has a different approach to a comeback," said Berrettini. "I think he was really very successful. I played against him a lot, they were big games. We killed each other in Vienna before he won. He achieved so much in his career. But we shouldn't forget that we're all human. If you feel it's the right moment to stop - no matter how old you are - then so be it. That's what it was for him."
"Knows what he's been through"
And Berrettini understands Thiem's ordeal, saying: "I know how difficult it is to come back after an injury. I didn't think about giving up either, but at least I thought about whether I could do it again. Whether I could muster the energy again after the injury. So I know what he's been through and I have a lot of respect for him and his career."
