Taylor Fritz had to work hard to overcome Valentin Vacherot in the first round of Basel. Invited by the organizers, the Monegasque player delivered a fine performance and managed to stand up to the world number 4.

On the ATP website, Fritz spoke about his opponent: "As the match went on, I started to understand why the conditions in Shanghai suited him so well.

When the balls started to wear out and the play slowed down considerably, he had control and was dominating me. In the final game, I managed to break on new balls.

I had better control when the play was a bit faster.

An impressive win.. Congrats to our winner this week, jimandlori958 and with a score that could not be caught or matched. I don't remember a 56 in a while with our group. Nice to see everyone using the 2 point predictions. Can't win without 'em.
