US EditionTaylor Fritz is back at the US Open after coming close to ending the Slam drought for American men
Taylor Fritz seeks to end the 22-year Grand Slam drought for American men, bolstered by his strong 12-month performance and past US Open final appearance.
- Taylor Fritz returns to the U.S. Open at Flushing Meadows after a strong 12-month stretch and the closest American men's Grand Slam run last year since Andy Roddick.
- After winning the Canadian Open earlier this month, Taylor Fritz's recent form reflects a big serve, big forehand, and improved return, while coach Michael Russell credits greater fitness and endurance for his better major results.
- His run to the final included eliminating countryman and friend Frances Tiafoe, and he won two five-set matches at Wimbledon, demonstrating notable stamina.
- Fritz says he is trying not to think about last year and describes much of the pressure as self-imposed, focusing on winning a major, The Associated Press reports.
- Looking toward the tournament, many see New York as the likeliest stage where scouting reports of seven players, including Taylor Fritz, could break the American men's Grand Slam drought.
