Taylor Fritz is in the finals of the US Open.
Fritz is the first American man in a major final since Andy Roddick in 2009.
Last American to win a major was Roddick in 2003!
21 years since an American won a major!! I grew up watching Connors, McEnroe, Agassi, and Sampras!

The previous game with Sinner and Draper was brutal in that heat.
Amazing people, these top tennis players, just for surviving under those conditions.

I thought that is the reason they put the roof on! So that the players don’t have play outdoors when it is hot or rainy.

I was always a big Agassi fan, mainly because my wife was a Sampras fan. Their rivalry was legendary, as were some of their matches.
Great tennis back then with the clashes of various styles. Today in men's tennis at least it is more like a marathon than a tennis match.

It was 92f+ on court. Roof or no roof.
