ATP Tour Finals 2020: Dominic Thiem vs Andrey Rublev

Dominic Thiem's figure of just a single title win from this year does not do justice to the form he has been in. The World No.3 has a win-loss record of 22-7 in 2020. With the exception of the Cincinnati Masters where he faced an early exit, Thiem has reached at least the quarter-finals of each of the tournament he has been a part of this year. This includes a runner-up finish at the Australian Open and a maiden Grand Slam win at the US Open. 

Thiem's wins over Stefanos Tsitsipas and Rafael Nadal have made him the first qualifier to the semi-finals from his group. He is now awaiting his semi-final opponent which will be either Novak Djokovic (to whom he lost the Australian Open title) or Alexander Zverev (who he defeated to win the US Open). The first semi-final will take place on November 21.

It has also been a marquee year for 23-year-old Andrey Rublev, who has charted a meteoric rise into the top 10 this year. Rublev, who started his year at No.23, has won five titles - in Vienna, St. Petersburg, Hamburg, Adelaide and Doha - to end the year at a career-high No.8. Armed with a win-loss record of 40-8, Rublev is sure to give Thiem a good fight on Thursday.
