Thiem meets Constant Lestienne (61st in the ATP ranking) at the start. The 29-year-old won the only encounter against the French in three sets eleven years ago in the Rennes qualifier. Thiem arrived in Munich on Friday. “I’m well prepared,” he affirmed. In the Bavarian capital, the current number 106 in the world rankings should take another step forward: “I now have the final feeling that everything is going in the right direction. That I’m playing tennis very well again.”
