Tickets are on sale now at DelrayBeachOpen.com for the ATP Tour tournament that runs February 7-16th.
If he wins the title, the fourth-ranked Fritz would be:
The first player to win the event three times in the tournament’s 33-year history
The 34th man since the Open Era of professional tennis began in 1968 to win at least one specific tournament three years in a row
The first American man born after 1990 to three-peat at an ATP Tour event
After winning his second straight title in Delray Beach last February, Fritz went on to become the first American man to reach the US Open final since 2006.
Fritz later was a finalist at the ATP Tour’s year-end championships to finish the year ranked inside the world’s Top 5 players.
