About

He reached the US Open final in 2024 and ATP Finals final in 2024, achieving a career-high No. 4 ranking.

Playing style
Taylor Fritz is a serve-dominant baseliner who relies on his powerful first serve and flat groundstrokes to control points from the baseline. His aggressive style features deep, penetrating shots with low trajectory, making him dangerous on fast surfaces like hard and grass where he has multiple titles. What makes him threatening is his ability to hold serve at over 89% rate, forcing opponents into tiebreaks, combined with consistent forehand pressure, though his return game limits break opportunities.
