In recent years, there have been a few names who have begun to impress. With each year passing by, Austria’s Dominic Thiem has shown constant signs of improvement in his game. The gruesome force in his groundstrokes over the past 12 months has been breathtaking. He did have a successful last year in tennis.

One of the shots which have drastically improved in the Austrian’s game is the backhand. Not many on tour use the single-handed backhand as convincingly as he does. His efforts during the off-season certainly paid off. A few weeks after the season ended, Thiem began training for the next season. In the recent past, there has been a different sense of maturity in his efforts.
