There was a burst of clapping right before the initial point, a curtain-raiser befitting the show about to unfold. Once the match commenced, maybe the momentum shifts made it tough to choose between a pair of close pals who have known each other since they were playing tournaments for kids younger than 14.
In the end, the roars were for Fritz, who surged with a six-game run against a fading and frustrated Tiafoe to come out on top 4-6, 7-5, 4-6, 6-4, 6-1 and reach his first Grand Slam final.
"It's the reason why I do what I do," Fritz told the fans, his voice cracking during a postmatch interview. "It's the reason why I work so hard."
The No. 12-seeded Fritz's seventh victory in eight professional meetings against No. 20 Tiafoe earned a showdown against No. 1 Jannik Sinner for the championship Sunday.
