Taylor Fritz is closing in on history at the US Open. The 26-year-old will become the first American man to win a major title since Andy Roddick in 2003 if he triumphs in the final on Sunday in New York, ending a 21-year wait.

The 12th seed battled hard to overcome countryman Frances Tiafoe in five sets in the semi-finals and also defeated seeds Alexander Zverev and Casper Ruud to reach his maiden Grand Slam final. However, his biggest test is to come, with the No. 1 player in the PIF ATP Rankings, Jannik Sinner, standing in his way between glory.

Sinner has been the man to beat in 2024 and is set to compete in his second major final on Sunday. The Italian clinched his first Slam crown at the Australian Open in January and holds a perfect 5-0 record in tour-level finals in 2024.

The 23-year-old moved past 2021 champion Daniil Medvedev in the quarters in New York and then beat British lefty Jack Draper in the semi-finals to earn his 11th consecutive win, having captured his third ATP Masters 1000 title in Cincinnati last month. In his match against Draper, Sinner suffered a scare when he fell on his left wrist in the second set. However, the top seed hopes the issue won’t harm his chances in the final.

“The physio loosened it up very fast on court, so after I felt okay in the beginning. Then after it went away by playing, which is good,” Sinner said in his post-match press conference on Friday. “Let's see how it is [Saturday] when it's cold. It's going to be a different feeling. Hopefully is nothing to concern about. I'm quite relaxed, because if it's something bad, you feel it straightaway a bit more.”

Fritz had lost at the quarter-final stage at a major four times before his run this fortnight but is now playing with the belief that he can go all the way. The 26-year-old, who is the first American man to reach a major final since Roddick at Wimbledon in 2009, is determined to end the 21-year wait for an American Grand Slam champion and believes he can trouble Sinner.

“I've always enjoyed playing him,” said Fritz. “To be honest, I don't think that I'm going to be put in a more stressful situation than I was today than playing in a final. I think today was much more stressful for me than playing the final. I just feel good,” Fritz said. “I have a feeling I'm going to come out and play really well and win. When I play good tennis, I think that level is good enough to win.”

The American and Italian are locked at 1-1 in their Lexus ATP Head2Head series, with both of their previous meetings coming on hard courts in Indian Wells. Fritz will be hoping to use the home crowd to his advantage when the pair walk onto the 23,000-seater Arthur Ashe Stadium on Sunday at 2 p.m. EDT and the American reflected on the positive state of American tennis ahead of the title match.

“I think it gives hope and shows that we're knocking on the door of winning a Slam, and we have this generation, this group of guys where there's four or five of us that are actually at this level,” Fritz said, referencing Top 20 stars Tiafoe, Tommy Paul, Sebastian Korda and Ben Shelton.

“I mean, it shows that we're all moving in the right direction. I think that whenever one of us does something, the others follow, and the others get belief from it. I think this is just the start for all of us.”

On Sunday, the full focus of the United States will be on Fritz, who will have to serve well and be aggressive from the baseline to hit through Sinner, who defends well out of the corners and can cause anyone problems with his weight and depth of shot.

Sinner has become accustomed to the big occasion in 2024, with no player earning more titles this year. Currently 54-5 on the season, the 23-year-old is relishing the opportunity to take on an American in New York.

“Being in America for sure, the crowd will be a little bit more on [his] side. But it's normal. It's like when I play in Italy, so I'm going to accept that,” Sinner said. “I have my team and my people who are close to me. In my mind, I know that there are many people watching from home from Italy, and it's just take some support from them.”

By reaching the final, Sinner has taken command in the battle for ATP Year-End No. 1 presented by PIF honours. The Italian is currently 2,185 points clear of second-placed Alexander Zverev in the PIF ATP Live Race To Turin, which serves as a barometer for ATP Year-End No. 1 presented by PIF honours. Sinner will take a 2,885-point lead if he wins the title.

The former Next Gen ATP Finals presented by PIF champion is the first Italian man to reach the title match in New York and is aiming to become the first player since Guillermo Vilas in 1977 to win his first and second Grand Slam titles in the same season.

With experience on Sinner’s side, Fritz will hope momentum can help him in his quest to defeat the top seed. The American, who captured the biggest title of his career in Indian Wells in 2022, was overjoyed after reaching the final on Friday night.

“It hit me when he [Eubanks] said the thing about how I'm in the finals and the crowd was cheering,” Fritz said. “It's just kind of like how I am. I'm more of an emotional person when I'm happy. When I'm really happy I cry at happy endings of movies and not at sad stuff. That's kind of just how I am.

“It's just joy, the crowd cheering and kind of that realisation, like ‘Wow, I'm in the finals of the US Open. It's such a lifelong dream come true. Something I've worked my whole life for to be in this situation.”

Fritz is up five spots to No. 7 in the PIF ATP Live Rankings after advancing to his fourth tour-level final of the season and is also in strong contention for qualifying for the Nitto ATP Finals. The American is fifth in the PIF ATP Live Race To Turin and would jump to fourth with victory.

In what is set to be a blockbuster match on Sunday, can Fritz end the 21-year American wait for a male major titlist, or will Sinner show the form he has all year and produce ‘lock-down mode’ to clinch his sixth title of 2024?

The last 4 home men’s champions at Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, US Open: Taylor Fritz looks to end 21-year US wait

https://www.tennis365.com/facts-stats/l ... ournament

Australian Open: Mark Edmondson, 1976
French Open: Yannick Noah, 1983
Wimbledon: Andy Murray, 2016
US Open: Andy Roddick, 2003

[Nowitzki]

Zdecydowanie, tam w ogóle był spory sprzeciw co do organizacji tego turnieju wtedy. Sam oczywiście żałowałem, że Djokovic z takich przyczyn nie może zagrać, bo turniej po prostu jest niepełny przez to, ale sam Serb myślał w sumie niewiadomo co, nie zaszczepił się, ale chęć bicia rekordów była tak duża, że sądził, że uda się oszukać system. Jeszcze tam były te historie, że przeszedł dopiero co covida i miał przeciwciała, a w sieci latały jego zdjęcia jak był na jakichś spotkaniach towarzyskich zamiast na kwarantannie. Następnie jego szurnięta rodzinka zorganizowała jakieś spotkanie dla mediów, a nie odpowiadała na żadne pytania, tylko wygłosili orędzie, że wielki Novak został niesprawiedliwe potraktowany.

No właśnie pytanie czy to, że przeszedł covid coś wtedy zmieniało, bo jak pamiętam nie doszukałem się wtedy, że ozdrowieńcy mogli wjechać do Australi. Tam ogólnie była długa cisza na jakiej podstawie wjechał. Tzn próbował wjechać

[Kiefer]

Mnie się wydaje, że nie zmieniało, może myślał, że organizatorzy jak mu obiecali, że będzie mógł to spróbował. Może też nie sądził, że taka afera z tego wyniknie, że go gdzieś zamkną, tylko ewentualnie zostanie cofnięty i no trudno.

[Robertinho]

Powtórzę się, ale na 3-1 dla Jannika to wygląda. Meczyk życia na serwie, wygrane taje, trochę słabszy Sinner, chyba tego potrzebuje Amerykanin.

Przede wszystkim Fritz miały większe szanse gdybyśmy uczestniczyli w US Open.

[The Djoker]

Czemu o 20? Ale ten turniej sie stoczyl.

[The Djoker]

Mi chodzilo o doping. Wspomnialem o deportacji, zeby podkreslic, ze Serb jest gnębiony za pochodzenie. Federera i Nadala by nie deportowano, a jak juz to bez takiego szumu medialnego. Serb mial okreslone dokumenty, wg ktorych mozna bylo zrobic wyjatek. Nie pojechal tam na krzywy ryj.

[Nowitzki]

Też tak to widzę, a raczej bardziej 3-0 lub ewentualnie 3-1. Może słabszy fizycznie Włoch mógłby pomóc. Jak dobrze czytałem aktualnie Sinner wygrał 15 z ostatnich 16 rozegranych tie-breaków, więc tu też wygląda to mocno w jego stronę.

[Nowitzki]

"Sinner could become the first player since Guillermo Vilas in 1977 to win his first two Grand Slam titles in the same season.
Sinner has won all five ATP Tour-level finals he has played this season, with four of those victories arriving on hard courts.
Sinner is 34-2 this year on hard courts.
Sinner has a 54-5 record for the season and has gone 74-7 since the conclusion of last year's US Open. Fritz has a 44-16 record this year.

22 — Grand Slam victories for Sinner in 2024. Only Novak Djokovic (8 times), Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal (6 apiece), and Andy Murray (2) have reached that total in one season this century.
17— Victories for Fritz in 2024 at Grand Slam tournaments. Only Andre Agassi and Pete Sampras have won more among American men since 2000."
