Because of his height (1.85 m; 6 ft 1 in), his serve can reach speeds of up to 145 mph (233 km/h), which he frequently exploits to set up devastating one-two combinations. Thiem is the fourth tennis player to take home Austria’s Sportsman of the Year title since 1949.

Method of Playing

Thiem is primarily a baseline aggressor who is also quite good at defending. He has a hefty forehand and a tough, powerful single-handed backhand that he uses in his groundstrokes. He has a single-handed backhand and is one of the few ATP players under the age of 30 who still uses one. Thiem claims that his coach persuaded him to switch to a one-handed backhand. Unlike many traditional single-handers, his backhand can effectively handle high-bouncing balls. To build points and wear out his opponents, Thiem frequently employs powerful, penetrating groundstrokes. He can attack and defend with equal aplomb thanks to his long take-back on both wings and the topspin he generates with his groundstrokes. Thiem has a powerful service that can reach speeds of up to 233 kilometers per hour (145 miles per hour). He frequently prepares for his returns with full swings by returning serves from a significant distance. Thiem has honed a shot that is crucial on low-bouncing hard courts: the slice backhand.

His clay-court prowess can be attributed in large part to his methodical, aggressive playing style, in particular, the extended take-back on his groundstrokes, the ability to prolong long baseline rallies, and the top-spin serve he frequently uses. He was called an “heir to the throne” on the Roland Garros website. He has a strong record against top clay-court players, including four victories over Rafael Nadal. He won the Argentina Open by beating Nicolás Almagro and Rafael Nadal, as well as the Madrid Open in 2014 by beating Stan Wawrinka, the Italian Open in 2016, and the Madrid Open in 2019 by beating Roger Federer. His mental strength, especially in tiebreaks, has been lauded.
