The former world number three in the ATP rankings first went onto the pitch, where he also greeted his two countrymen.
According to "Bild", he then reportedly took part in a tennis-football challenge together with Seiwald and his teammates Maarten Vandevoort and Maxime Esteve.
Esteve is quoted as follows: "The generation with Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic, and you was incredible. I am a big fan of yours."
Thiem also reportedly gave the entire team a motivational talk, which was said to focus primarily on the ups and downs throughout a career and how to handle them.
