Taylor Fritz and Yannick Hanfmann to resume Wimbledon thriller on Tuesday

Taylor Fritz, the ninth seed at Wimbledon, and Yannick Hanfmann, the world No. 45, will have to wait until Tuesday to finish their first-round match at the All England Club. The match was suspended due to darkness on Monday, July 3, with Fritz leading 6-4, 2-6, 4-6, 7-5, 3-2.

Fritz started strongly by breaking the German’s serve in the third game and holding his own to take the first set. However, Hanfmann bounced back by breaking Fritz twice in the second set and once in the third to take a 2-1 lead.

The fourth set was a tense affair, with both players holding their serves until 5-5. Fritz then raised his level and broke Hanfmann with a forehand winner to serve for the set.

The momentum was with Fritz in the fifth set, as he broke Hanfmann again in the fourth game and consolidated his lead with a hold. The American did not face any break points in the final set and was serving at 3-2 when play was suspended at the 3-2 changeover just after 8:40 pm local time due to darkness.

Taylor Fritz and Yannick Hanfmann will resume their match on Tuesday, July 4, on Court 3.
