Career

Thiago started on the FIVB World Tour with various partners in 2006 , but was initially unable to place in the top ranks. At the side of Jan Ferreira there were hardly any successes in 2008 and 2009. On the FIVB World Tour 2010 Thiago started with Pedro Cunha . At the first event of the year in Brasilia, Cunha / Thiago achieved fourth place, which was also their best result of the season. They finished fifth in Rome, Stavanger and Gstaad and seventh in Prague. There were also ninth places in Mysłowice and Klagenfurt, and the two Brazilians were thirteenth in Shanghai and twenty-fifth in Stare Jabłonki. On the FIVB World Tour 2011 Thiago played alongside Harley Marques . In the capital of his home country, the two Brazilians took 25th place. At the next event in Shanghai they came in 13th. At the World Championships in Rome , the two South Americans finished seventeenth, at the following two tournaments they failed in the country quota to Harley's partner from the previous year, who competed with Ferramenta. Harley Marques and Thiago achieved single-digit final placements in Moscow as fifth and at the Québec Open as seventh. In 2012 Thiago formed a new duo with Rhooney Ferramenta and had the best result on the FIVB World Tour with fifth place in Gstaad . There was also another fifth place in Stare Jabłonki alongside Bruno . Since 2013, Thiago has limited itself almost exclusively to tournaments in South America. The best results overseas were fifth places on the FIVB World Tour in Anapa and Durban together with Oscar Brandão.
