Taylor Fritz congrats to reach the semi Seer at the US Open what an achievement what a match how was it for you out there beating Zasha verif it I mean it felt great for me coming out in the beginning this is one of the first quarterfinals I've played where I just came out really loose feeling good uh playing Just aggressive how I wanted to play from the beginning I think um it got tighter as the match went on I think you know when you see that I guess you're opponent is is a bit tight missing balls they would wouldn't maybe normally miss it makes makes me tight as well and so it became uh a battle you know both of us would try to get a free point on our serves and if not then if the serve came back then we'd kind of just most of the time just push and see who Miss first but uh I mean it was a it was a tough match and I'm super happy to get through so for sure as a kid you dreamed to play one day at the usth open now you will be facing we don't know yet and the semis someone in front of this crowd what would you say to little Tyler the little boy I mean I don't know I I definitely wouldn't uh wouldn't have believed it but yeah I mean I've I've come I've I've come a really long way and when you step back and and I guess take a second to think and put it all in perspective it's uh it's amazing but uh I'd probably tell a little me to to work a little bit harder 16 major win this this season the last time that happened for an new US boy was Andy rodic quite a while ago that comparison that makes you proud yeah I think obviously Andy's been uh the person that a lot of us American players get compared to a lot because he was the last American to win a slam and last American to be number one so he's kind of like the the the comparison Benchmark for a lot of us so yeah I mean being being compared uh I guess the first to do a lot of achievements since him is uh you know it's good means I'm on the right path thank you best of luck for the semis
