Thiem shows his class as he reaches the quarter finals in style

Dominic Thiem produced his best performance of the season on Thursday at the Estoril Open where he moved past American Ben Shelton 6-2, 6-2 to reach his first quarter-final of the season.
The Austrian won with confidence in the opening round against fellow countryman Sebastian Ofner and followed it up with a commanding performance against Shelton. He defeated the American by smashing the ball off both wings, recording his first consecutive tour-level victories since reaching the Antwerp semifinals in October. When he faces either Quentin Halys or fourth seed Roberto Bautista Agut in the round of eight, the former World No. 3 will look to extend his winning streak. If he makes it to the semi-finals at Estoril, Thiem will move up eight spots to No. 103 in the Pepperstone ATP Live Rankings and re-enter the Top 100.
