With his career set to come to an end at the end of this week's ATP 500 in Vienna, Dominic Thiem recently spoke to Tennis Majors.

Among other things, he addressed the players still in the hunt for a Grand Slam title.

Reflecting on his long-awaited US Open title in 2020, he explained: "I suddenly realized that it wouldn't necessarily make me happy forever.

I don't know if they can understand what I'm saying, but I think for long-term happiness and for a long-term life, it's better if you understand it that way. I was down 5-3 in the fifth set (in the 2020 US Open final against Zverev).

So it could easily have happened that I never won a major trophy.

I really think I'd see things the same way now.

What's really important is to really give it your all and do your best in every game. Enjoy the process.

Your life shouldn't depend on two or three points here or there. If you've given it your all, what more could you possibly do?"

Just wishing Dominic Thiem all the best for his future. Tennis is a hard game at any level, but for professionals wanting to reach the top, or to stay at the top, it is very tough, both physically and mentally. Not many have the ability to control both in the long run.

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.

What a finish this is.. I believe King has used his boost for today. Skelp is closing strong. Two wins and he claims 1st if I lose my last prediction.

I propose the following changes to the rules:

1...a walķover will not be a loss. We have no control of player's health. If he or she is entered in a contest we expect them to play.

2...an incomplete match is not a loss. If a player forfeits we pick another match if there are more to choose.

3...this also applies if TT cancels a match. TT will not take hours to decide an outcome.

How about leavin...

It's a shame that so many matches are being canceled. TT ,you are destroying your game ,and thereby killing your app. I don't know how many matches others have had canceled , but I'm at 3 and it's only thursday.

As a long time player and lover of this game , I don't know how much of this I can tolerate. For example I waited hours last night for you to confirm my win and post my points. Every ot...
