Age on his side

The 23-year-old might not be a teenage Grand Slam winner like Nadal was, but he still has many years of prime health ahead of him. The World No. 7 reached his first semi-final at the biggest stage when he was just 22. With a little more fine tuning, both he and his game will grow exponentially to match up to the highest level of competition.

One thing is for certain – Thiem still has the time to take things slowly, cross every bridge as he comes to it and give himself the chance to improve as well as adapt to the changing scenarios in world tennis.

Roland Garros probably is one of the toughest tournaments to even qualify for, and Thiem has a chance of going deep into the competition not only in the coming future, but also this very year!
