They're capable of it. Thiem's record against the big 3 is 14-17 so it's not all bad.
Djokovic the clear favourite to win the AO.

i worry about Zverevs mental strength in a final v Novak. Capable, very much so. But his record in grand slams before this tournament.....
I don't know if Thiem is capable to beat Novak on this hardcourt over 5. Its takes everything he has to beat him on clay.

This year the court is slow, it's pretty much playing like a clay court.

true. And he will play Novak on a cool night day. It will be a more interesting final regardless of who makes it. Someone new in Australia and a new match up overall. Exciting
Who knows, they might be playing Federer.......right....

Thiem winning kinda makes up for Stan losing. What happened to Stan? He looked in complete control when I left the match after the first set, checked the scores a couple of hours later and he’s lost

Just on the most famous Austrian sportspeople, I was in the car listening to SEN this evening and they had a journo on from Austria and she reckoned Thiem was third behind two skiers I’d never heard of.
I think Thiem would have a better chance in the final as he has already been two french finals so he would have the mentality to compete and not get nervous.
I hope Sharma can make some inroads in the singles as she looks like she can play.

Grand Slam - Australian Open (Day 11, Thursday)
I already do a variation of that - punch the chest twice then do a finger point (crowd or where the goals are!). Pretty sure he did that a few years ago as well :P

Rafa post match, “I honestly didn’t play a bad match.”
He's happy to admit the better player on the night won, but according to some in here he's a bad sport, sook etc.

Good on him. I thought he played pretty average but was hard to tell how much of that was forced by Thiem pushing him around.Rafa post match, “I honestly didn’t play a bad match.”
