Moving Forward, The Knee Is Still a Big Issue for Fritz
Taylor Fritz will likely be the top-ranked American (barring an upset of Jannik Sinner by Ben Shelton) after the Australian Open. But the American’s future is hard to predict after that, as a lingering knee issue has clouded the possibilities.
Fritz, who was defeated by Lorenzo Musetti in straight sets on Day 9, remains hopeful that he can simultaneously rehab his knee tendinitis and play through the season. But if we read into his words, there doesn’t seem to be a ton of clarity.
He entered the Australian Open thinking that if things didn’t improve, he may have to shut down his season for a stretch and focus 100 percent on getting the knee right. The knee clearly isn’t right, but the will to push on is still there for Fritz.

Playing through injuries, Taylor Fritz blames short off-season for slow start at Australian Open
Fritz began the year with a knee injury and eluded to other physical issues after a four-set win over Valentin Royer.
MELBOURNE, Australia—Tennis players are thought to be at their fittest when the season first gets underway, but Taylor Fritz pointed to the four-week off-season as responsible for more injured players at the Australian Open.
“Maybe the season is too long, I don't know,” Fritz said sarcastically after advancing past Valentin Royer, 7-6 (5), 5-7, 6-1, 6-3. “Maybe four weeks isn't enough to fully get healthy of all injuries.
“You know, it is what it is. You know, I think I laid a lot of groundwork in the off-season to get healthy. But at the same time the off-season is so short, you need to be like training hard in the off-season or else you come into the year feeling like you've not played enough matches or had enough time on court, which is very much how I feel.
