Watch link from Rafael Nadal vs Tyler Fritz live in the 2022 Wimbledon quarter-final

July 6, 2022 Tonight at 21:00, Rafael Nadal takes on the opponent who ended his first 21 consecutive victories of the year in his third consecutive semi-final at Wimbledon. It was the Indian Wells Championship in March, when the Spanish veteran suffered from rib pain. But seeing Taylor Fritz again this time, the second seed must be very different.

After a slow start, Nadal seems to be accelerating at Wimbledon. He lost just seven games to Italy's 2019 Antalya champion Lorenzo Sonego in the third round and overwhelmed 2021 US Open quarterfinalist Bottich van der Zandschulp in 16 rounds.

All this proves that, after picking up more men's singles titles with 22 titles and having been in the top 10 in the world since breaking through in 2005, Nadal aims to win all four Grand Slams in the same calendar year.

So far, he was halfway through when he first won the Australian Open and French Open in the same year. This is the first time in Nadal's career that he has conquered four Grand Slams in the same year.

Nadal's ability to take revenge is currently highly appreciated, with 18 wins in this year's Grand Slam and seven wins in the Wimbledon quarter-finals. Facing American players, his Grand Slam record is as high as 30 wins and 2 losses. In 2005, the US Open lost to James Black and in 2004, the US Open lost to Andy Roddick.

For Taylor Fritz, this is the first time he has reached the last eight of a Grand Slam. However, he hasn't lost a set at Wimbledon in 2022. So far, however, his journey has been rather mild, and he has not met a truly formidable opponent.

The nearest American tennis player has ever reached the quarterfinals of Grand Slam without any set of the former world's No. 1 Andy Roddick in 2007, when Rafael Nadal also at Indian Wells that year and won the championship on the way to Wimbledon before losing. Richard Gasquet in the quarterfinals.

Currently ranked 14 in the world, Taylor Fritz has 8 consecutive victories on the pitch. He has just strengthened confidence in Eastbourne, when he won the second ATP Tour title on the pitch. For Nadal, he is having a 1-1 draw with the matches that have the meaning of championship.

This proves that Taylor Fritz is enough to win Nadak on the pitch, but of course, he must show his peak form. The problem is that in the eyes of experts, Taylor Fritz is having good performance, but actually showing on the pitch is not so good. The evidence is that when he did not play excellently on the pitch, he lost in a row in front of Van Rijthoven and Jack Draper last month.
