French Open 2023: Taylor Fritz booed again by the audience – Eurosport experts show sympathy

“It’s quite uncomfortable. The match hadn’t even started yet. But it was the same pitch where he asked the spectators to be silent. They obviously haven’t forgotten that,” analyzed former British professional Tim Henman for ” Eurosport”.

On Thursday, Fritz asked the audience to be silent during the match against Frenchman Arthur Rinderknech (2: 6, 6: 4, 6: 3, 6: 4). The Parisians had whistled at him mercilessly

Parisian-born Alizé Lim classified what happened before the match against Cerundolo as follows: “The day before yesterday he provoked them, but they are not the same people. These are different ticket holders today – but it is as if they were the same people. If I I would cry now if he were him. But he doesn’t seem to care at all. That could give him extra motivation.” “It’s really tough,” commented the Austrian ex-player and current Eurosport presenter Barbara Schett.

Expert colleague John McEnroe was able to put himself in Fritz’ position. “I can understand when the fans are against you, so respect to Taylor. I love that.” Such an audience can be either intimidating or inspiring, according to the 64-year-old. “You can use this negative fuel to your advantage. He has a great personality.”

McEnroe also recalled a similar case: “I like to see a little confrontation, à la Mevedev at the US Open a few years ago.” The Russian was also mercilessly hissed by the spectators in 2019.
