Top seeded Taylor Fritz is one match away from securing his third Eastbourne International title. The world number 13 takes on the Australian Max Purcell who had to qualify to get into the main draw of this grass court tournament.
Fritz won this title in 2019 and won it again two years ago. Winning this title would give him a major boost ahead of Wimbledon where he faces another Australian, Christopher O'Connell in the first round.
Max Purcell also has a good record in this tournament and got to the last four in 2021, also having had to qualify to get into the main draw.

Taylor Fritz - Max Purcell: Form Analysis
Taylor Fritz is the top seed for the Eastbourne International and was the only seeded player who reached the quarter-finals. The American was 13th in the last published rankings list. He's up a place to 12th as a result of reaching this final.
He can't climb any higher in the live rankings but winning this final will take him up to tenth in the Live ATP Race. The 26-year-old is a former Wimbledon quarter-finalist and two times he's won this grass court event on the rather windy south coast of England.
Last week saw him get to the quarter-finals at Queen's Club. He's gone well again this week with wins over Thiago Seyboth WIld, Shang Juncheng and in the semi-final, lucky loser Aleksandar Vukic.
It was a tight match for Fritz in the last four. He won the match in straight sets but both were decided by a tie-break just as happened in the last eight. Five of the six sets he's played this week have ended 7-6.
World number 94 Max Purcell has reached his first ATP Tour final. The Australian faces in the final of the Eastbourne International. Friday was a big day for Purcell as he beat Britain’s Billy Harris in three sets with the middle one being lost.
He also had good news in the draw for the first round of Wimbledon. Purcell takes on qualifier Otto Virtanen and he’ll hope that will produce his first win in the tournament.
The 26-year-old had to qualify to get in this main draw and has reached this final without playing a seed. Wins came against Laslo Djere (in three sets), Lorenzo Sonego and Miomir Kecmanovic before Friday’s win over Harris. He’s now up to 68th in the live rankings, a rise of 26 places.
