On a disappointing loss for a U.S. team that had title potential, and a typically wild Davis Cup weekend where home turf wasn’t a help.

Second-seeded Fritz beat the 6-foot-8 Canadian 6-4, 6-2 on Friday night in the third round.

Sinner had 38 winners and just 11 unforced errors in the one-hour, 40-minute match and saved all four break points he faced.
