Navone and Fritz are on the Day 2 Schedule at Omnium Banque National Présenté Par Rogers 2024 on Wednesday 7 August 2024. Lets breakdown the career, past stats and recent form of these players and predict who will get the victory.
Who Will Win In This Head-To-Head?
Mariano Navone from Argentina will be facing Taylor Fritz from the USA in their first meeting. Navone is currently 23 years old and ranked 36th in the world, with a career-high ranking of 29. In 2024, he has a record of 15-14 with two finals appearances. This event marks his debut, as he has not played in any previous matches.
Navone’s rise in the rankings has been notable, breaking into the top 200 in June 2023, the top 100 in February 2024, and the top 50 in April 2024. He achieved his career-high ranking of 29 in June 2024, becoming the first player in the Open Era to be seeded in the main draw of a Grand Slam tournament debut at Roland Garros.
During the 2024 Rio de Janeiro tournament, Navone qualified and earned his first ATP Tour win. He then went on to reach his first quarterfinal, semifinal, and final. In Bucharest, he defeated fellow Argentine player Federico Cerundolo, which was the biggest win of his career, en route to his second ATP Tour final.
Navone made his ATP Tour debut as a wild card entry at the 2024 Cordoba tournament. In the following two weeks, he qualified for and played in the Buenos Aires and Rio de Janeiro tournaments, where he defeated Coria for his first ATP Tour win.
In 2023, Navone had a successful Challenger record, with a 40-18 record and ending the season with a 19-2 run. He won five Challenger titles in Poznan, Santa Fe, Santa Cruz, Buenos Aires, and Santa Fe 2, leading all players in titles.
Navone started playing tennis from a young age, beginning at the age of 3, as his parents and sister were also tennis players. His nickname is “La Navoneta.” It’s worth noting that Navone has a record of 0-2 against top 20 players and is seeking the biggest win of his career. This is his first ATP Tour hard court event, and he aims to achieve his first tour-level win
outside of clay courts, as all his 15 career wins have been on clay.
On the other hand, Taylor Fritz from the USA is 26 years old and currently ranked 13th in the world, with a career-high ranking of 5. In 2024, he has a record of 37-14 with two titles. He has a previous record of 3-5 in this event, reaching the third round in 2022 and 2023.
Fritz achieved the status of former World No. 1 junior and won his fifth ATP Tour title at the 2023 Delray Beach tournament, reaching a career-high ranking of 5. He became the first American in the top 5 since Roddick in September 2009. He defeated Rafael Nadal in the 2022 Nitto ATP Finals semifinals, following his win against him in the 2022 ATP Masters 1000 Indian Wells final. Fritz became the first American men’s champion at that event since Agassi in 2001.
In his career, Fritz has reached the fourth round of a Grand Slam tournament for the first time in the 2022 Australian Open and reached the quarterfinals in the 2022 Wimbledon, having previously lost in the third round in Grand Slam matches. As an 18-year-old wild card entry, he reached his first ATP Tour final at the 2016 Memphis tournament, becoming the youngest American finalist since the beginning of the ATP Tour in 1990.
Fritz has also achieved success representing his country. He helped Team USA win the inaugural United Cup in 2023 and was part of the winning Team World in the Laver Cup in 2022 and 2023.
Notably, Fritz has a strong record of 9-5 at ATP Masters 1000 level this year, with successful runs to the semifinals in Madrid and the quarterfinals in Rome in his last two events. He has a record of 6-1 against Argentine opponents on hard courts since the start of the 2021 season, with his only loss being against Schwartzman in the third round of the 2023 ATP Masters 1000 Shanghai in October.
