Dominic Thiem’s grand slam career ends at the scene of his biggest triumph

Dominic Thiem’s grand slam career is over after losing in the first round of the US Open to American Ben Shelton.

The 30-year-old is retiring after his home tournament in Vienna in October and was given the red-carpet treatment at Flushing Meadows, the venue of his one grand slam win in 2020.

Thiem was handed a wild card and the honour of opening Arthur Ashe on the first day of the tournament but succumbed to a 6-4 6-2 6-2 loss to American 13th seed Ben Shelton.

Everyone remembers where they were on September 13, 2020.

Thanks for the memories, @domithiem
