  • All fun and games. Taylor Fritz and Alex de Minaur aren’t afraid to hold back their views. Currently in Italy for the Nitto ATP Finals, the duo sat down and joked with each other, answering a series of questions. They’re both chasing their maiden title at the prestigious season finale.

  • Playing nicely at the start. The fifth seed American and seventh seed Aussie, who will shortly face off in the Ilie Nastase Group, played nicely at the start, praising each other’s games. “Can I move like a demon? Can I take that? I just want to move like a demon,” Fritz said when asked about de Minaur’s on-court attributes. “I just want to serve like Taylor,” de Minaur replied with a smile. “Then, we’re set. That is what makes a champion.” However, things quickly heated up during ‘Savage Mode’. The questions got spicier, with both giving an honest assessment of each other’s skills. Watch this video to see the full exchange.
