“Gonna Play Extremely Aggressive Tennis”: Taylor Fritz Sends Stern Warning to Novak Djokovic Ahead of their Clash at Australian Open 2021

American tennis player Taylor Fritz recently won his match against Reilly Opelka at the Australian Open 2021. After fighting a 5-set marathon, Fritz was finally able to conquer the last set.

The final scoreline of the match was 4-6, 7-6, 6-7, 7-6, 6-2. However, the World No.31 will now face Novak Djokovic in the 3rd round.

After his match against Opelka, Taylor Fritz spoke about the challenges in his upcoming match against Novak Djokovic. Although it’ll be a tough match, Fritz believes that it’ll be an opportunity for him to prove his mettle.

“It’s another chance to prove myself,” began Fritz. “I keep making third rounds and I keep having extremely tough opponents in the third round. But that’s what happens when you’re a 25-32 seed.

“You are guaranteed to play a top-eight player and you know I’ve got, this is my third year in a row in the third round here at Australian Open and my third round opponents have been Roger, Dominic, and now Novak.”

Even though Fritz realizes that it’ll be a tough match against Djoker, he looks well prepared for it. He has faced Roger Federer and Dominic Thiem in the 3rd rounds of the Australian Open in the past and seems ready for this big match as well.
