Taylor Fritz suffered an injury during his Wimbledon campaign, which adds an element of caution when backing him in Washington this week. Still, the American has an excellent track record on home hard courts and has enjoyed plenty of success in these conditions. If his fitness holds up, he should be well placed to put the recent setback behind him and make a strong start against Zizou Bergs.
Fritz Looks To Build On His Strong Season
- Taylor Fritz holds a 4–1 record in opening-round matches in Washington.
- He has a 19–9 record against players outside the Top 20 in 2026.
- Zizou Bergs has a 2–12 record against Top 10 players.
- He has failed to win a match in five of his last
HTH - Taylor Fritz leads 1-0

Fritz Returns to Washington Full of Confidence
Taylor Fritz is coming off a successful grass-court swing, where he won 11 of his 14 matches, including titles in Stuttgart and Halle, before reaching the quarterfinals at Wimbledon. He will now look to carry that momentum into the North American hard-court swing.
It has been an impressive turnaround for the American, who struggled with injury issues earlier this season and skipped most of the clay-court campaign to focus on his recovery. That decision has paid off, allowing him to rediscover his best form at the right time.
Before his injury setback, Fritz produced notable results on hard courts by reaching the final of the Australian Open and the fourth round in both Indian Wells and Miami.
This will be his sixth appearance in Washington, where he owns a 4-1 record in opening-round matches, highlighted by a semifinal run in 2023.

Bergs Looks to Build on Grass-Court Success
Zizou Bergs struggled for confidence and consistency during the early part of the season, registering multiple main-draw wins at a tour-level event only once before the grass swing, when he reached the third round in Monte Carlo.
However, his fortunes changed on grass as he found his best tennis, winning his maiden ATP Tour title in Eastbourne and reaching the third round at Wimbledon. Those results helped him achieve a career-high ranking of No. 34.
This will be Bergs' second appearance in Washington. During his debut in 2025, he suffered an opening-round defeat.

Verdict
The injury concern makes Fritz slightly difficult to trust, but his quality and proven record on American hard courts give him a clear edge. Backing Fritz to cover the -3.5 games handicap and Fritz to win in straight sets.
