“I don’t think any of the players have been in this situation often. Maybe Dominic (Thiem) and Daniil (Medvedev) more often,” said Canadian 12th seed Denis Shapovalov, whose own bid for a first Grand Slam title ended at the hands of Carreno Busta in the quarter-finals. “There’s a lot of dark horses out there. It’s anybody’s slam. It’s very exciting for tennis. It’s definitely causing a lot of nervous matches,” he added. Thiem said he is not underestimating the challenges presented by the remaining competitors. “There is no Roger, Rafa or Novak but there is Daniil, Sascha (Zverev) and Pablo now. They are three amazing players. Every single one of us deserves the first major title. Everyone will give it all and that’s all that is on the mind,” said Thiem. “Once we step on the court the other three (Big Three) are forgotten anyway.”
