Whatever I saw in 1st set I feel Thiem is the guy who can take racquet off the hands off anyone and he seriously could be a contender to win against Djokovic and his tough wins will make that even more a fact

Expected.
He has stopped taking tennis seriously after 2018 Wimbledon muggery, hence no concentration on fitness.
He can still crush the ball when in position to do so, but that's about it.
It was his marriage, not the Wimby loss. He’s now just less dedicated to the sport

The weird thing about Cilic's massive decline is that it's not even like he was a great mover and has lost that. He just misses everything off the ground now for no reason. His serve stats are still roughly the same as they were 3 years ago.

Idk if anyone is watching the matches on ESPN+, but the random changes between camera angles are really bad.

So he definitely lost movement, just footwork/agility rather than speed.
