Rafa Nadal - Dominic Thiem: times, date, and how to watch online and TV | Brisbane International
The new tennis season has begun and the Spanish star’s return is just hours away from happening at the Brisbane tournament, where he will face Thiem.
The wait is over. The new tennis season has begun, and the start of 2024 will bring the best tennis action action for fans. Rafa Nadal will finally return to the courts, and his debut will be against Dominic Thiem in what’s expected to be a close-contested, hard-fought clash in Brisbane, Australia.
The 22-time major champion has been almost a year out of action due to a hip injury suffered during his second-round match with Mackenzie McDonald in the second round of the Australian Open, where he lost the game in straight sets.
After losing in his debut game in the doubles category, Nadal seems ready for his opening singles game against Dominic Thiem, the 2020 US Open champion, who also saw how injuries affected his career severely, although he seems to be getting closer to his old form, and getting his confidence back over the last months.
