The Austrian began the match in a confident fashion and managed to break the 32-year-old twice in the first set to claim a 6-4 victory after holding serve to secure the win.
Thiem grew in confidence in the second as he dominated the Spaniard and took his opportunities with deadly-accurate groundstrokes to take the set 6-2.
The 20-year-old earned his spot in the fourth round as Lopez committed several unforced errors in the third, and the Austrian managed to limit his mistakes to secure the set 6-3.
