Taylor Fritz's emotional victory over Rafael Nadal in the 2022 BNP Paribas Open was a pivotal moment in his career. This win not only propelled him to a career-high ranking of No. 13 but also marked the beginning of an upward trajectory that included reaching five Grand Slam quarterfinals and winning six additional titles. Now ranked No. 4, Fritz returns to the site of his breakthrough with ambitions to win more major titles, including his ultimate goal of securing a Grand Slam championship.
Winning this tournament is one of those crazy childhood dreams that you really think is never going to happen.
Once I reach a new milestone, it becomes so much easier for me to start doing it again and again and again, and then it's on to the next thing.
Obviously the ultimate goal is to win a Grand Slam, but I'm also really focused on wanting to win some [other] big titles this year.
It's insane, sharing the court with Nadal, let alone beating him.
