Finally Dominic Thiem!
The 21 year-old from Austria wins a tough final against an in-form Leonardo Mayer in Nice. The match ended after 2 hours and 28 minutes with both players displaying their finest tennis.
Dominic commented “It’s really, really special; the first title ever. It’s not only this. The match today was a really, really good level. Leonardo played outstanding and I was fighting until the end. I think it was one of the best matches I’ve ever played. The first title, I will remember it forever, so I will also remember forever Nice.”
Dominic will now go to Paris where he is going to play Bedene in the opener. Time to make a giant leap for the youn Austrian
