Dominic Thiem has the French Open suffered a very painful first-round defeat. The Paris finalist from 2018 and 2019 lost 3: 6, 2: 6, 4: 6 against the Bolivian Hugo Dellien on Sunday (May 22nd, 2022) and is still waiting for his first win since his comeback.
The 28-year-old Austrian only returned to the tennis tour in March after a nine-month break due to a wrist injury. But Thiem is currently miles away from his old form, in which he won the US Open in the final against Alexander Zverev in 2020. Against Dellien he conceded the seventh defeat in a row.
