Play it like it's 2022: This is the motto of Taylor Fritz's approach to the Dallas Open this week. Because the first two opponents of the US number one are also those he played last year. First of all Jack Sock, whom Fritz now defeated 7:6 (5) and 6:4. And now, like in 2022, Marcos Giron is waiting in the quarterfinals. In turn, he had no problems with the 6: 4 and 6.3 against Oscar Otte.
And for the second German Davis Cup player, who made the journey from Trier to Dallas, it was over in the round of 16. Because Daniel Altmaier had to admit defeat to John Isner with 3:6 and 6:7 (1).
Thus, of the remaining eight players, five come from the USA. However, a semi-finalist will be chosen in a match between two "guests": namely in a duel between Yibing Wu and Adrian Mannarino.
