Andy Roddick analyzed what his countryman Taylor Fritz would wish to beat Jannik Sinner, within the newest episode of his podcast Served with.
Many hopes of American tennis are positioned on Fritz, busy lately with america within the United Cup in Perth and Sydney, to return to profitable a Grand Slam title in males’s singles. A title that has been lacking for the reason that 2003 US Open received by Roddick himself.
The previous world no 1 – talking of the 2024 US Open finalist – highlighted that he has indisputably made extraordinary enhancements, he has reached his greatest rating, he has received ATP titles, he has reached the ultimate of the US Open and the ATP Finals however there’s nonetheless a query mark and an issue to unravel.

“The guy is a hard worker, he plays wherever he can, he never wants to take weeks off and tennis is his priority. I like the way he talks about where he would like to be. He doesn’t hold back.
The question I ask myself is – speaking of the two finals he clearly lost against Jannik Sinner at the US Open and then at the ATP Finals in Turin – what can he do to change tactics against the world number 1?
He is not a player who can create drop shots or slices or generate the speed of a Carlos Alcaraz. Taylor will never be the best player in the world in terms of movement on the court even if he has improved a lot. And he is not even a Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard-type server.
He has a great serve but in my opinion if he wants to have a chance in the Slams he needs to work on his second serve because Sinner can handle it without problems. On a general level he has improved in every area, he must make the necessary adjustments against Jannik because I think today is the worst match for Taylor Fritz,” analyzed Roddick.
