Fritz Returns After Nearly Toppling Nadal
Fritz had his chance in the last match he played. A chance to defeat Rafael Nadal and make it to the Wimbledon semifinal where he had Nick Kyrgios for company.
Unfortunately for him, Nadal’s game soared even as his fitness receded during that encounter and the American went out fighting in the fifth set tie-breaker.
The American will now return to competitive after the near-month-long break as he takes on a player ranked 83rd in the world, and with a solid hard court record of his own.
Fritz has already won the title at the Indian Wells Masters this season, and had made the fourth round at the Australian Open too. And with a whole season of hard court tennis in front of him, he would want to improve on his world number 13 – even break into the top eight players for the season that helps him qualify for the ATP Finals.
Can he start things off by torpedoing Popyrin for starters?

Popyrin Benefits from Opening Retirement
Tung-lin Wu has never been ranked better than 179th in the world and Popyrin was always going to be the favourite coming into their opener. But it turned out to be a lot easier for the Aussie than one would have imagined.
Six games into the match, Wu needed to retire from the encounter because of a fitness concern, which gave Popyrin his first main draw of the season since March.
Popyrin, who had lost his opener at the Atlanta Open last week, will now hope he can live up to the Fritz challenge. He will, however, need to do a lot better than he has all season, which has seen him win just four matches in total.
Can the Aussie pose a few questions off Fritz?
Fritz v Popyrin Prediction and Tip
