One of the few Americans who escaped mass carnage over the first two rounds of action in London, Fritz is coming off a pair of marathon five-setters and got a much-needed break Thursday ahead of his third-round bout with Alejandro Davidovich Fokina on Friday after being on court three consecutive days due to extended matches.

Rising American tennis star Taylor Fritz, currently number five in the world, is set to face 26th seed Alejandro Davidovich Fokina later on Friday for a place in the Wimbledon fourth round.

American Taylor Fritz looks to move onto the fourth round of Wimbledon when he faces No. 27 Alejandro Davidovich Fokina on July 4.
