Jannik Sinner vs. Taylor Fritz: Match Preview
Jannik Sinner entered the ATP Finals following a setback. The Italian withdrew from the Paris Masters at the last minute due to virus symptoms from earlier in the season. However, his performances at the ATP Finals have shown no signs of physical issues.
Sinner won all his group-stage matches in straight sets, including a victory over Taylor Fritz, whom he will face in the final. In the semifinal, he delivered another dominant performance to defeat Casper Ruud.
Fritz, meanwhile, had a tougher path to the final. He started strong with a commanding win over 2020 ATP Finals champion Daniil Medvedev. After a loss to Sinner in the group stage, he bounced back with a victory against Alex de Minaur.
The semifinal between Fritz and Alexander Zverev was the highlight of the tournament. The American triumphed 6-3, 3-6, 7-6, becoming the first American finalist at the ATP Finals since James Blake in 2006.
Jannik Sinner vs. Taylor Fritz: Match Prediction
As mentioned earlier, Jannik Sinner and Taylor Fritz are no strangers to each other. They have already faced off at the ATP Finals and are well aware of each other’s game.
Their head-to-head record stands at 3-1 in favor of the World No. 1. Fritz’s only victory over Sinner came at the 2021 Indian Wells, which was also their first meeting on the ATP Tour. However, this match is a different challenge. Sinner will have the support of the home crowd and is eager to add another major title to his trophy collection.
The 23-year-old has a chance to become the first player since Alexander Zverev in 2018 to win the ATP Finals without dropping a set. Despite Sinner’s dominance, there is anticipation that Fritz could elevate his game for the final and make it a thrilling contest.
