After a first-round exit in his previous effort in Flushing, Fritz is looking stronger, as all three of his tournament matches have ended in three straight sets thus far.
not only have advanced into the fourth round, but also are the highest seeds in their remaining sections of the tournament due to upset losses by No. 4 Holger Runne, No. 5 Casper Ruud, and No. 7 Stefanos Tsitsipas.
USA’s Taylor Fritz and Czech Republic’s Jakub Mensik shake hands at the net after Fritz’ victory in the US Open tennis tournament men’s singles third round match at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York City, on September 1, 2023.“It feels really good. … I expected Francis and Tommy to move forward and even yesterday before everyone played today I looked at the draw, I mean it’s crazy,” Fritz said. “This side of the draw is crazy.
“So, not to put pressure on them,” he added with a laugh. “That’s just what I thought personally. I wonder who it’s going to be but one of them is going to be in the semis I say. We’re all talking and seeing each other in rooms and stuff, it’s cool. We’re going to hopefully keep it going.” In the round of 16, Fritz is set to face unseeded Dominic Stricker of Switzerland on Sunday. Stricker had a stunning upset victory over Tsitsipas in five sets.
