Taylor Fritz was upset after seeing how much hate Tiafoe and Sock got on social media after they defeated Federer and Nadal.
The final match of Federer's career was a doubles match in which he partnered with Nadal to take on Sock & Tiafoe. The legendary duo won the first set but got beaten in the end as Sock and Tiafoe earned the first point for Team World which ended up winning the event.
Fritz was there and despite not being surprised, he was upset about the amount of hate his compatriots got on social media after the match:
"I was pretty upset to see how much hate Frances and Jack got for winning the match and Frances got for hitting Roger or hitting the ball at Rafa at net. This is not an exhibition. We are playing for a lot and for a lot of money. It bothered me a lot because I know Roger would have absolutely hated it if they just gave it to him."
He also admitted that he cried after witnessing the retirement:
"I definitely cried a lot more than I thought I was going to."
