Alex Michelsen will shoot for his place in the semifinals of the 2026 Washington D.C Open against Taylor Fritz.
Michelsen, 2-0 vs. Fritz in their head-to-head series, is a lucrative underdog pick at +175 in this match.
Current Form:
Taylor Fritz punched his ticket to the quarterfinals of the 2026 Washington D.C Open after posting another clinical win over Kamil Majchrzak 6-3, 6-4. Fritz fired 14 aces and won 91 percent of his first serves to hold 100 percent of his serves. He also broke Majchrzak twice to secure an easy win.
Michelsen also cruised through to the quarterfinals with another straightforward win over Adrian Mannarino. The American drilled 11 aces and won 91 percent of his second serves, conceding one service game in the match. Michelsen is 18-6 on the hard court in 2026.
The Matchup: Fritz is the favorite because of his high ranking, but Michelsen poses a serious threat to the No.3 seed. Michelsen has won his first two encounters with Fritz, beating him on the clay of Geneva in 2024 and the hard court of Indian Wells early this year.
