For the third time this season, the US ATP Tour Finals were held. They both won previous Riley Opelka – in Dallas with Jenson Broxby and in Houston with John Isner. In Saturday’s title match in Eastbourne, Taylor Fritz, who defeated Maxime Cressi 6:2, 6:7 (4), 7:6 (4), achieved success.

After the first set, which Fritz easily won, the game became even. In the second, Chrissy started serving better, playing more nets, and eventually breaking the tie that he won. In the third game, the incremental game was all about it again, and this time the higher-ranking Americans turned out to be better at it.

Before I came here, the grass season wasn’t going well for me. Now I’m feeling great and I’ve gained a lot of confidence – said Fritz after the match, which was never broken on the way to the title.
