Jiri Lehecka and Taylor Fritz: Taylor Fritz leads 4–1 across 5 recorded meetings.
The No. 22-ranked Lehecka took down seventh-seeded Taylor Fritz by doing the one thing Fritz couldn't: converting on return. Fritz went 0-for-5 on break points; Lehecka cashed 3 of 10 — and saved all five he faced. The third set was the separator, where Lehecka spiked to 87% on first-serve points and fired seven of his ten aces, breaking in games four and eight to close out 6-2. He erased a 7-6 second-set wobble that featured two match points, snapping a four-match losing run in the rivalry. Martin Landaluce is next.
