Read full article: 'Both gave everything': Schwartzman tops Thiem in 5 in ParisArgentina's Diego Schwartzman celebrates winning his quarterfinal match of the French Open tennis tournament against Austria's Dominic Thiem in five sets at the Roland Garros stadium in Paris, France, Tuesday, Oct. 6, 2020. The ninth break put Schwartzman up 4-2 in the fifth when Thiem netted a backhand, and the last ended it, when Thiem put two drop shots into the net. From early on against Schwartzman, Thiem would bail out of points by trying mediocre drop shots, a bit of foreshadowing of the day’s denouement. He led the fourth 5-3, and held three set points while serving for it at 5-4. “For sure, I’m going to be awake," said Schwartzman, who defeated Nadal at a clay-court tuneup in Rome last month.
