2^nd set.

The set was pretty even as both sides managed to hold the serve. The only difference was 1 break that Cameron conquered in the 4^th game (3-1) before winning the set (6-3).

3^rd set.

Similarly to the 2^nd set, there was not much difference between them in this set with the exception of 1 break that the American conquered in the 6^th game (4-2) before winning the set (6-3).

At the end of the match, the American scored 90 points vs. the Brit’s 74 points.

The American served pretty well to win 77% of the points (36/47) behind his first serve, and he won 57% points (21/37) on his second serve. Fritz fired 15 aces and he committed 3 double faults. Taylor won this match even if he had a tough time in converting his break points since he converted only 43% (3/7). On the other side, the Brit was effective when converting 50% of the break points that he conquered points (1/2). Yet, that was not enough to win the contest.
