'I Almost Let A Lot Of People Down': Fritz On US Open Final Loss
US Open: After his quest to become the first American man to capture his home Grand Slam since Andy Roddick did in 2003, ended with a loss to world no. 1 Jannik Sinner at the US Open final, Taylor Fritz said he "let a lot of people down," who were waiting to witness the history at the Flushing Meadows.
The world No. 12 American was the first man representing America to contest a major final since Roger Federer defeated Roddick at Wimbledon in 2009. He fell to World No. 1 Sinner 6-3, 6-4, 7-5 after a strong run to his first major final.
"I feel like American fans have been wanting a men's champion for a long time, and I don't know, I'm pretty upset with how I played. I feel like I almost let a lot of people down," Fritz said in a post-match press conference.
