Fritz beats Goffin to reach Shanghai semis

October 11

Taylor Fritz has advanced to his fifth Masters semi-final with a straightforward 6-3 6-4 victory over David Goffin of Belgium at the Shanghai Masters.

The 26-year-old American was in control throughout Friday’s 82-minute encounter and converted three of his seven break points to set up a meeting against four-time champion Novak Djokovic or Jakub Mensik.

“I feel like sometimes it takes a couple of matches to find my routines, to find what feels good and what is working for me,” Fritz said.

“I feel like once I get past the first two rounds, I feel very locked in. I’ve come this far already, so I might as well really dial it in and I’m just enjoying being here.”

In the other semi-final on Saturday, top-ranked Jannik Sinner will face Tomas Machac, who toppled second-ranked Carlos Alcaraz in the quarter-finals.
