Taylor Fritz vs Frances Tiafoe US Open Prediction
Taylor Fritz and Frances Tiafoe set up a potentially explosive all-American semifinal at the U.S. Open after winning their respective 1/4 Final matches to guarantee the United States a finalist at the country’s Grand Slam tournament for the first time in 18 years.
In a tournament that has seen the big guns falling by the wayside, 12th seed Fritz continued with the theme as he beat 4th seeded German Alexander Zverev 3-1 Zverev 7-6 (2), 3-6, 6-4, 7-6 (3) to reach a major semifinal for the first time Fritz, a 26-year-old from California, entered the day with an 0-4 record in Slam quarterfinals, the latest loss being in July at Wimbledon against Lorenzo Musetti and the other three coming twice against 24-time Slam champion Novak Djokovic and against 22-time Slam champion Rafael Nadal. He was due for a big break and he took it with both hands when it came here against Zverev who made it to the finals of the U.S. Open in 2020 and the French Open this year.
20th-seeded Tiafoe advanced to the final four at Flushing Meadows for the second time in three years when his quarterfinal opponent, Grigor Dimitrov, retired injured while trailing 6-3, 6-7, 6-3 4-1, providing an anticlimax in a match that had nothing worth writing home about. Dimitrov, who was seeded No. 9, had played a five-setter in the fourth round and seemed to struggle late in the third against Tafoe, grabbing his left hamstring. It proved too much to handle in the 4th set leading to his retirement.
The winner of Friday’s duel will become the first American man to reach a Grand Slam final since Andy Roddick lost to Roger Federer at Wimbledon in 2009. Roddick was also the last US player to win a men’s major when he won in New York in 2003. We expect a particularly tight opening set from these life-long friends as they both try to set the tone for the match. We are backing at least 10 games to be played in the set as our Taylor Fritz vs Frances Tiafoe prediction here.
