Dominic Thiem does not make friends with his statements against the tennis aid fund. Nick Kyrgios publicly pours out of the Austrian.
He doesn’t understand what it is about. We get paid too much on top and too little money is distributed, ”explains Kyrgios on Instagram. “It is about helping whenever possible, whether professional. Try to put yourself in his place.
A situation where Dustin Brown was. The German also criticizes Thiem’s statement. «I started in 2004. I lived in a motorhome, I survived week after week with the money I earned. If I lost in round 1 of a 10,000 tournament, there was $ 117.50 less tax, ”recalls Brown on Twitter. For other players, he covered rackets for 5 euros per piece. If the crown crisis had happened then, Brown said, “it would have cost me my career.”
“I don’t see why I should give those players money”
Even after criticism, he sticks to his statement. In the discussion about donations to the Austrian press agency APA, he adds: “I don’t think there are any players that I would not like to support.”
“It got a little hard”
Thiem explained that there are some things that would bother him about the idea. I would rather choose who would receive the donations. “Because it will benefit those players who really need it and who really deserve it.”
The world number 3 also doesn’t like that the aid fund only talks about ranges 200 to 700. After all, there are “2000 players in the world ranking, the lowest definitely belong there.”
Only the path was not entirely correct with his statement. Thiem: “What I said seemed a bit difficult, I didn’t say it so hard.”
