Who Is Jordan Fritz? Everything About The Son Of American Tennis Player Taylor Fritz

Written by Robert Harper — 0 Views

Tennis is a full-time sport that requires a full-time commitment from those who wish to pursue it as a career. Only those who have paid the price are aware of its actual value. Taylor Fritz, an American tennis professional, is already the father of a three-year-old and divorced at the age of 23.

Fritz was born in San Diego and was raised by two former tennis professionals. From the moment he was given a racket, he immediately demonstrated his talent on the court.

His style consists of a formidable blend of powerful groundstrokes, a super-strong serve, rhythm, and reaches to put a tough defence. It’s no surprise that Pete Sampras, Juan Martin del Potro, and Roger Federer were his childhood heroes.

“One of my biggest talents is my ability to be calm under pressure,” Fritz says “It’s probably one of the reasons I’m where I am.”

Fritz started playing tennis at the age of just 2, following in his parent’s footsteps.
