Jannik Sinner defeats Taylor Fritz to win group in Nitto ATP Finals

Jannik Sinner defeated Taylor Fritz 6-4, 6-4 at the ATP Finals in Turin, maintaining his unbeaten record in the round-robin stage. The Italian seemed energized by the supportive home crowd, which cheered him on as he secured his second victory over Fritz this year. This win propels Sinner to the top of his group, while Fritz holds second place with one win and one loss from his two opening matches.

In a tightly contested match that lasted 1 hour and 50 minutes, Sinner capitalized on a single break of serve in each set to clinch the victory. The decisive moment came at 4-5 in the second set when Fritz missed a backhand, sealing the win for Sinner and delighting the Turin crowd.Sinner really announced himself as a serious contender at the top of the men’s game on this stage last year when he beat Novak Djokovic in the group stages, and he seems to feed off playing at home.

“It was a very tough match,” Sinner said in his on-court interview. “We got to know each other very well in the Grand Slam [US Open] final, and today was very aggressive.

“I just tried to serve well in the important moments. He was serving really, really well – I was struggling to return his serve. It was an important game for me and I’m pleased I got through.

“The crowd is helping me a lot, this is a very special occasion for me. I’m just glad I can show some good tennis like today and I’m looking forward to what is to come.”
