Fritz Ready To Shock The World In Melbourne
Taylor Fritz is a quiet contender to win the 2023 Australian Open.
His top credentials to become the next Grand Slam champion of tennis are considerable.
Fritz is ranked no. 9 in the world and 5-1 so far this year with wins vs Zverev, Berrettini, Hurkacz, Lehecka and Basilashvili (three top 15 wins all in straight sets).
He’s played at a level previously at the Australian Open which is about good enough to win the title – remember, he came from two sets down and forced Novak Djokovic to a fifth set in the third round in 2021. Fritz fine play and phenomenal fighting actually provoked Djokovic to unleash one of his patented all out roars and he forced Djokovic to raise his level and play his very best tennis.
Outside of Djokovic, Fritz has beaten every other top player in the ATP including Medvedev and Nadal.
And most importantly, Fritz believes he can do it. “I’m really up for it this year.”
