Grand Slam final run is ‘repeatable’, says Taylor Fritz after US Open

US Open runners-up Taylor Fritz believes his final run is repeatable and his journey to the summit clash of the New York Major gave him a lot of confidence. Fritz suffered a straight-set loss against World No.1 Jannik Sinner at the Arthur Ashe Stadium on Sunday.

The American feels he played well within himself and added he didn’t play out of his mind and thus believes he can once again reach the Slam final. The 26-year-old admitted there is still a lot of room for improvement.

“It is a great feeling to have gotten to this point, knowing that I’m playing well, but I’m playing very within myself, and I feel like it’s repeatable,” he shared.

Fritz registered wins against top 10 players like Alexander Zverev and Casper Ruud at the Flushing Meadows. After his US Open final run, Fritz jumped by five places in the PIF ATP Rankings to take the seventh spot.

“I think the biggest thing is that I played solid this week, but I played very within myself. I don’t think I at any point, was, like, wow, I’m playing incredible, or I’m playing out of my mind,” he said.

“I know that there’s still a lot of room for improvement. And something I’ve said throughout my entire career, whether it’s when I won my first ATP point or I won my first challenger or I made my first round of 16 or whatever it is, I’ve always said once I do something once, I just feel a lot more confident in being able to do it again.”

Fritz also showered praise on Jannik Sinner, who dominated the final and gave almost no chance to the American.

“He’s the best player in the world right now. My plan A is not working. The plan B that I fall back on would normally be just like bringing everything in, being a little bit safer, grinding it out,” he said.

“That works, along with my serve, against a lot of other players, but against him, I tried to kind of bring it down, not be as aggressive, and he’s just gonna bully me a little bit too much.”

Fritz will look to keep up the good show in the upcoming tournaments.
