World No. 3 Dominic Thiem is currently in Australia, competing for the season’s first Grand Slam event. He won his second-round match yesterday, after beating German tennis player Dominik Koepfer 6-4 6-0 6-2, in a match that lasted close to one hour and thirty-eight minutes.
During his day off, Dominic Thiem was seen on Andy Lee’s show, ‘Guess Whom’. As the video begins, the Austrian player and Lee hit it off instantly and as the video goes on, both of them burst into a riot of laughter. In the game, each player picks a card that has an individual’s photo printed.

The player has to guess the individual correctly and can receive clues from the competitor. Thiem had picked Naomi Osaka’s card and had to guess Andy’s card, who had the ‘Tiger King’ card. When Andy tried to guess Dominic’s card, he asked if the person would charge a hefty sum to be the face of ‘Apple’.
Thiem answered yes, and to his disappointment, Andy dropped Thiem’s card down, stating that he considered the 2020 US Open champion to have a lower brand value. The whole episode indirectly meant that Dominic considered his brand value lower than that of Naomi Osaka.
