Taylor Fritz Reaches Wimbledon Quarterfinals After Opponent Injury Retirement

News summary

Taylor Fritz advanced to the Wimbledon quarterfinals for the third time after his fourth-round opponent, Jordan Thompson, retired due to injury while trailing 6-1, 3-0. Thompson, hampered by back and leg issues and having played several grueling five-set matches earlier in the tournament, was unable to continue despite briefly returning after a medical timeout. Fritz, the fifth seed and fresh from winning his fourth Eastbourne title, will face 17th-seeded Karen Khachanov, who won his match in straight sets. Fritz has spent nearly 10 hours on court across his first three matches but had a relatively quick victory in this round. The American, who reached his maiden Grand Slam final at the 2024 U.S. Open, is currently the dominant grass-court player this season and aims to make a deep run at Wimbledon while pushing to break into the ATP Top 10. Both players showed resilience, but Fritz’s superior condition and form were decisive in advancing him to the last eight.
