American Taylor Fritz claimed his third title in Eastbourne (United Kingdom) by defeating Australian Max Purcell 6-4 and 6-3 in the final of this ATP 250 on grass on Saturday.
Fritz, who had just competed in the doubles final at Queen’s last week, triumphed in a country that is well known to him, since in Eastbourne he has won three of the eight titles he has on his record. In the south of England he already won in 2019 and in 2022.
With this title, he has also won six of the last seven finals, dating back to 2021. In this period, he only lost the one in Munich (Germany), on clay, against Jan-Lennard Struff.
With this result, Fritz is once again the number one American, a privilege he lost this week when Tommy Paul took the title at Queen’s.
Fritz, a quarterfinalist at Wimbledon in 2022, is only defending the second round this year in London, so he has a good opportunity to add and to try to return to the top 10.
