American Taylor Fritz has entered the Australian Open with his eyes on the prize. After losing to No. 1 Jannik Sinner in the finals at the U.S. Open last year, he's entering his first Grand Slam tournament since then with one thing on his mind: to make it all the way to the end. "I would really want to be in another Slam final — obviously the goal is to win — but just another opportunity at winning a Slam," he stated recently.

After handily defeating Jenson Brooksby in the first round, Fritz is headed to round two where he will face Chile's Cristian Garin tonight.
