Then Dominator turned destroyer.




Thiem trashed his Babolat racquet in four authoritative strikes leaving a mangled mess he jolted with one more hammer strike before handing the wreckage to a ball girl.

The racquet shattering wasn't exactly earth-shaking but it was a prelude to the skies opening as rain erupted with Coric holding a 6-1, 4-5, lead.
