Claim Welcome Bonus🇺🇸 Taylor Fritz
Taylor Fritz at No. 5 in the world is a dominant force on grass this year. He got to the Eastbourne final as defending champion, seeking a fourth title here in six years. His 2025 record is better than 20-5; one of his latest wins came in the semis against Alejandro Davidovich Fokina, 6-3, 3-6, 6-1. He hit 18 aces, converted 100% of his break points, and hit 33 winners. Fritz had to battle through two marathon matches in the earlier rounds, defeating Joao Fonseca and Marcos Giron by 7-5 in the final sets. Year to date on grass, he won his hometown Stuttgart ATP 250 title and served well under pressure. In recent interviews on social media, Fritz preached the power of the “one match at a time” mindset in staying mindful ahead of big matches. Fritz is known for rushing opponents off the court, athletic power from the baseline, and keenly adjusting his tactics where necessary. Given his three consecutive and recent Eastbourne titles in 2022-2024 and solid form, I would expect Fritz to enter the final with all confidence and focus.
🇺🇸 Janson Brooksby
Jenson Brooksby ranked No. 149, and from that position, he catapulted via a lucky-loser entry into the Eastbourne final. His 2025 season is ranked about 15-13, with a good run here after winning his first ATP title in Houston on clay earlier this spring. He is now four wins into the tournament at Eastbourne: 6-2, 6-3 over Daniel Evans; 6-7, 6-4, 6-4 against Ugo Humbert; and earlier rounds, showing clutch performance. His grass-court form is pretty resilient so far; he came through after losing the first set against Humbert and confidently served out the match. In interviews, Brooksby stated, "I stayed really resilient... I was not expected to be here," underlining his freedom and hunger. No big posts on social media of late, but you can feel the intensity of on-court focus. While grass has never been his best surface, this momentum, the almost defiant fight when it matters, and the smart drawing of points from his brain would make him a live threat. I am very interested in whether he will keep going with the breakthrough and take on Fritz's power game.
Taylor Fritz vs Janson Brooksby Head-to-Head Statistics
The H2H stands at 1-1. Fritz went to clinch a straight-set victory in Australia (6-2, 6-0, 6-3), while Brooksby served an ace in their last meeting, though that particular contest was, shockingly enough, in 2021. The pair have never had a tussle on grass, which makes the Eastbourne final their first meeting on a lawn surface. With momentum on Brooksby's side but experience on Fritz's side, history gives no clear advantage to either player.
