He became the first player to win both the singles and doubles titles at the same event since Kyrgios at the 2022 Washington tournament.

Thompson’s breakthrough came in 2019 when he reached his first semifinal and final in the ATP Tour, ending a four-match losing streak in the quarterfinals. He also reached his second final in 2023. Additionally, he achieved his first fourth-round appearance in a Grand Slam at the 2020 US Open and reached the fourth round of an ATP Masters 1000 tournament for the first time at the 2019 Miami event.

He also defeated No. 3 Stefanos Tsitsipas at the 2023 ATP Masters 1000 Indian Wells.

However, Thompson faced a challenging year in 2018, with a 1-11 record on the ATP Tour. In contrast, he had a successful run on the ATP Challenger Tour, finishing with a record of 52-17, including reaching five finals. This performance earned him the second-most Challenger wins in a single season, second only to Berlocq’s 57 wins in 2010.

In the upcoming match, Jordan Thompson aims to reach his ninth ATP Tour semifinal. He has a record of 4-4 in semifinals, with three of those on hard courts, achieved in Brisbane, Los Cabos, and Atlanta last year. Thompson has a record of 7 wins and 20 losses against top-10 players. In 2024, he went 4-4 against top-10 players and has won three out of his last four matches, including victories over No. 7 Hubert Hurkacz at the US Open, No. 9 Casper Ruud in Tokyo, and No. 7 Casper Ruud at the ATP Masters 1000 Paris.

Grigor Dimitrov, aged 33, is currently ranked World No. 10, with a career-high ranking of No. 3. In his career, Dimitrov has achieved a win-loss record of 461-251 and has won nine ATP Tour titles. In the Brisbane tournament, Dimitrov has an impressive record of 25 wins and 6 losses, including winning titles in 2017 and 2024, which puts him tied with Murray for the most titles in the tournament’s history.

Dimitrov had an outstanding junior career, reaching the top ranking and ending 2017 with a career-high ranking of No. 3. He became the first debutant to go 5-0 en route to winning the Nitto ATP Finals title since McEnroe in 1978. Dimitrov is also the highest-ranked Bulgarian player in history and the only champion from his country, with his most notable victory being over No. 1 Novak Djokovic at the 2013 ATP Masters 1000 Madrid.

In terms of Grand Slam performances, Dimitrov has reached the semifinals at the 2014 Wimbledon, 2017 Australian Open, and 2019 US Open. He has also reached 11 ATP Masters 1000 semifinals, including appearances in the finals at the 2017 Cincinnati, 2023 Paris, and 2024 Miami tournaments. Notably, Dimitrov achieved his first victory over Roger Federer in the quarterfinals of the 2019 US Open when he was ranked No. 78, making him the second-lowest-ranked US Open men’s semifinalist in history, after Connors at No. 174 in 1991.

The winner of the Dimitrov and Thompson match will become the eighth man to reach back-to-back semifinals in the Brisbane tournament’s history. Previous players to achieve this feat include Milos Raonic, Roger Federer, Kei Nishikori, Andy Murray, Andy Roddick, and Radek Stepanek.
