Top seed Taylor Fritz will take on Ugo Humbert in the second round of the Swiss Indoors 2025.

Ad

Fritz was up against Valentin Vacherot in the first round, who was playing his first match since winning the Shanghai Masters. The American took the early lead with a break of serve in the third game, only to lose his serve in the following game.

Vacherot eventually claimed the first set by breaking the top seed's serve in the 10th game. Fritz put himself in a good position in the second set as well but fell apart when it mattered. He blew four set points on his opponent's serve in the ninth game and failed to serve out the set himself in the subsequent game.

However, Fritz got his act together in the tie-break, capturing the set on his eighth set point. He landed the first blow in the third set as well, only to allow Vacherot back into the match. He then snagged another break of serve in the final game of the match to complete a 4-6, 7-6 (4), 7-5 comeback win.

Humbert drew Sebastian Korda in the first round of the Swiss Indoors. The Frenchman went on a three-game run towards the end of the first set to take it. He almost blew a comfortable lead in the second set but regrouped pretty quickly.

Humbert failed to serve out the match and wasted a match point on Korda's serve as well. However, he didn't falter on his next attempt, closing out the match on his second try for a 6-3, 6-4 win.

Fritz earned a hard-fought win over Vacherot and brought an end to the latter's unbeaten run. He won 71 percent of points behind his first serve and rained down 21 aces. Humbert faced some resistance from Korda towards the end but eventually got over the finish line.

Ad

While Fritz won both of his previous matches against Humbert, the conditions favor the Frenchman's brand of tennis this time. Their last two matches were outdoors, and they will now be competing indoors.

Humbert has thrived when tournaments are held on indoor hardcourts. He was the runner-up at last week's Stockholm Open, won the title in Marseille earlier this year, and was the runner-up at the Paris Masters 2024. However, he has gone 1-5 against top 20 players this season, thus making Fritz the favorite to score yet another win in this rivalry.

Pick: Taylor Fritz to win in three sets.
