World No. 5 Taylor Fritz, top seed and thrice winner at Eastbourne, is in great shape on grass. He defeated Joao Fonseca (6-3, 6-7, 7-5) and Marcos Giron (7-5, 4-6, 7-5) with resilience, serving well and taking all 11 first-serve points in the deciding set against Giron. Fritz's record shows 21-11 YTD, having recently won the Stuttgart Open without dropping a set or service game, a milestone in his fourth grass title. His social media and interviews give him the aura of a "delusionally optimistic" kind of mental strength, along with a really deep desire for a maiden Grand Slam performance. The very fast Eastbourne courts will complement his aggression on serve and forehand. As the defending champion here, he will be chasing his fourth title, therefore, combining his history and hunger.
🇪🇸 Alejandro Davidovich
In the 28th position, Alejandro Davidovich Fokina is having a breakthrough grass season. He secured his maiden grass-court semifinal, beating Jakub Mensik 6-4, 7-5, in a battle of attrition against the wind. At some point, he actually dropped his racket mid-point but managed to close the match.
This is his ninth ATP semifinal in 2025 and his fourth of the year, including Delray Beach, Acapulco, and Monte Carlo. He has a 25-14 record YTD, including the notable win against Fritz on hard courts at Delray Beach. Recently married, he feels good stability in his off-court life has allowed his mind to stick to tennis. While new to grass courts, his agility, scattered diving volleys, and adaptive play-flights tactics brushed by the wind make him a terror at Eastbourne. Spanish media and his own social media posts share his delight in matching Feliciano López's feat of being the first Spaniard in an Eastbourne semifinal since 2014.
