"I’m excited about a lot of the things": Taylor Fritz eager to 'improve' next year despite incredible 2024 season
ATP
America’s Taylor Fritz is looking forward to improving
further in the 2025 season despite having a fabulous time this year. The
27-year-old is already regarded as one of the best players currently playing in
men’s tennis along with the likes of Italy’s Jannik Sinner and Spain’s Carlos
Alcaraz.
Fritz, who has had an impressive 2024 season, has been
recently quoted in a report by UBITennis where he talked about the upcoming
season. The California-born was of the opinion that he is ‘excited’ about the
2025 season, knowing fully well that there are a lot of areas where he can improve
despite proving a lot of doubters wrong with his performances in 2024.

“I’m excited about a lot of the things I think I can still
improve on, that I’m working on,” he said. “I feel like almost every part of my
game has gotten better the last couple of years. Definitely feeling more
confident with my forehand, my serve, my return. I’ve been moving better,
playing better defense. I’ve been able to come to net and finish some points,
which obviously still working on. There’s been a lot of things. A lot of days,
a lot of matches, it’s going to happen. You play a couple games where the
serve, you miss some close ones, maybe you make less first serves in a game.
There’s games I just try to rely on my ability to play from the baseline, play
good points to get me out of those games. In games where it doesn’t work, all I
can really say is I needed to serve better because from the ground. I’m excited
because I still think there’s a lot of room for me to improve.”

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.
mandoist06-11-2026 - Enough of her bullshit. Go marry someone.
mandoist06-11-2026 - Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Having spent weeks and weeks through the years on tour, I can say with confidence that Conchita was (is) one of the very few who realize the surprising level of maturity (and sometimes lack of) which Mirra seems to have developed in such a demanding adult world of Pro-Tennis. While at the same time reminding herself (Conchita, that is) that Mirra is still young and developing mentally and physically. The general public may forget at times, or not at all realize, these modern era young athletes do not have a 'normal' Youth. It's a major sacrifice, among countless sacrifices, these athletes must make. People who blow-off that fact are ignorant and unfair when they blurt out, "They choose fame so they have to put up with the intrusions on their lives". No, they do not.
mandoist05-11-2026 - Okay... someone with a camera was EAVESDROPPING on a private conversation. Shouldn't that be the point of discussion here? Regardless of the sensationalist crap by media, Pegula (and anyone) has a right to an opinion. There used to be an expectation that private conversations were respected, regardless of 'stardom' and whatever other defensive excuses media tries to shove in our faces. Boo-hoo if feelings are hurt. BTW: Having been employed at various tourney venues, etc., I can't tell you how nasty and offensive players can be when discussing their opponents and colleagues... in "private". Well, I could, but won't. I also challenge anyone to deny what Jessica said is false.

- After a couple decades traveling to IIHF tourneys overseas... our family is done with it... and I will not be the only one!! Bad enough the NHL allows Ovachenko (a Putin Supporter and Campaigner) to live and play in the USA. Let's not forget the STATE SPONSORED RUSSIAN DOPING PROGRAMS still in effect today.
mandoist31-10-2026 - Osaka's mental state apparently does not allow her to reach any more Quarter Finals? I mean, she doesn't really have the time for tennis with all the pre-planning that must go into her 12 year-old "fashion" goals.
