Taylor Fritz’s Grand Slam hopes took a major hit at the US Open after a stunning five-set loss to Francisco Cerúndolo, dropping a two-set lead and crumbling under pressure with 54 unforced errors. The Argentine fighter clawed back to win 3-6, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 in a grueling three-and-a-half-hour battle, sending Fritz packing and handing Cerúndolo his first-ever fourth-round appearance. With Fritz visibly frustrated and unsure how to process the collapse, the spotlight now shifts to the other six American men still alive — they’re suddenly the nation’s last hope to end the men’s Grand Slam drought since Andy Roddick’s 2003 title.
