ATP Finals in Turin
Taylor Fritz fights off debutant Alex de Minaur
Taylor Fritz fought his way to victory against Alex de Minaur on the last match day of the "Ilie Nastase" group at the ATP Finals in Turin. The US-American defeated the Australian in three sets (5:7, 6:4, 6:3). Fritz can therefore still have hopes of reaching the semi-finals, while de Minaur has to leave without a win. The result also has implications for Jannik Sinner.
Italy's tennis star Jannik Sinner is already a semi-finalist before his final group match at the season finale of the ATP Tour. The 23-year-old world number one benefited from Taylor Fritz's victory over Alex de Minaur in Turin on Thursday. The US-American defeated the Australian 5:7, 6:4, 6:3 and thus helped Sinner to advance early.
US Open finalist Fritz still has to worry about making it through to the top four and is dependent on Sinner's performance. In the evening match (8.30 p.m.) between the Italian crowd favorite and Russia's Daniil Medvedev, the final places in Group Ilie Nastase will be decided. Only the winless de Minaur has no chance of progressing.
