in the final to win his first ATP Masters 1000 title. He later added titles in Tokyo in 2022, Delray Beach in 2023, and further grass-court success in Eastbourne in 2022 and 2024. He has also been a regular representative for the United States in Davis Cup competition and a consistent top-ranked American on tour. Tournament life also depends on rest, even if his routine is not perfect. Fritz is honest about it. “I have a lot of really bad sleep habits, to be honest, but it’s just stuff I’ve done my entire life,” he admits. “I hydrate a ton before bed. I take some sleep melatonin gummies.” Temperature matters to him. “I like it really cold.” He even gives credit to his setup at home. “I gotta shout out my Eight Sleep. I have it in Miami because I got my place there. So that always helps a lot too.” Then comes what he calls his worst habit. “The worst habit that I do is I like to put on a show that’s not super exciting, like a cartoon or an anime. I’ve got an AirPod in one ear and I just watch it and I go to sleep. I always go to sleep watching something on my iPad.” It is not textbook sports science, but it is consistent. Asked what might surprise fans about him, he pauses. “I’m not sure. This question always stumps me. I don’t know. I really don’t know what would surprise people.” The hesitation feels genuine. Off the court, the routine stays simple. “I like to spend time with friends, family, play video games. Honestly, I sleep a lot. I golf sometimes.” There is no elaborate escape plan. Just downtime. At the Miami Open, Fritz’s best result came in 2025, when he reached the semifinals. Photos/Courtesy of Taylor Fritz/Instagram
