The Austrian claimed a career-best five titles that season and reached the final at Roland Garros and the ATP Finals.
“What an incredible journey… It all started in early 2019 – you came along with your incredible energy and extreme love for the sport,” Thiem wrote on Instagram.
“That’s how we won the US Open and Indian Wells. But we also reached the finals of the Australian Open, the French Open, and twice at the Nitto ATP Finals. I think that shows we’re an incredible team. But unfortunately, everything has an end and this end came now. We have decided together that we will go different ways starting next week.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this incredible and beautiful time Nico. I wish you only the best and our friendship will last forever,” he added.
