Congrats to Thiem, I never thought his first GS title would be something other than RG. He is still much better clay player but he managed to take advantage of the situation and take a big one for himself.
I just watched parts of the match, mostly from 3rd set. The bookies were backing Thiem in this one all the way. He was still favorite @1.8 when he was 2 sets down with a break in the 3rd set. I wanted to place a bet on him but those odds were criminal.
yeah, i did not expect from Thiem to come back after two sets, or to put it in a perspective i expected from him to win set or two, but not to win the match
Zverev said that it is not his last chance, agree on that, but it was his best chance to win first one, think that he will have to wait for another chance a bit longer
congrats to Thiem, it is a big deal, and he is now really close to no.2 (RG away), or maybe no.1 after AO with performance like this one
