Carlos Alcaraz served Taylor Fritz some quick revenge on Tuesday at the Kinoshita Group Japan Open Tennis Championships, where he ousted the American to win his eighth title of the season.
Just nine days removed from his Laver Cup defeat to Fritz, the World No. 1 stamped his authority with a classy 6-4, 6-4 championship-match performance in Tokyo, capping a remarkable debut run at the ATP 500 event. Now boasting a Tour-best 67 wins and eight trophies in 2025, according to the Infosys ATP Win/Loss Index, Alcaraz is threatening to better his rival Jannik Sinner’s tally of 73 wins from last year.
