Which brings Shelton’s second bromance into the spotlight:
“Taylor Fritz. You know, that guy is solid as a rock. Crazy.”
The on-court chemistry between Shelton and Fritz was clear during their 7-6, 6-4 win over Team Europe’s Carlos Alcaraz and Alexander Zverev, even if Shelton was happy to point out the five-year age gap between the two.
“Taylor is a Laver Cup veteran, or a vet in general, so I’m not too worried about him being prepared for anything out there,” he said after the win.
“But I’m not calling you old….”
Fritz smiled in response: “Vet, I don’t know. I’m not that old!”
The two haven’t ruled out teaming up again for the USA in the Davis Cup, so the Laver Cup could be just the first chapter of this story.
