Dominic Thiem enjoys nature in new UniCredit Bank commercial
All the commercials that Thiem did for UniCredit Bank involved a part of nature. The Austrian is a vocal supporter for eco-friendly systems to be put in place across tennis as he mentioned several times that tennis, as a sport, needs to do better for environment conservation.
