Taylor Fritz, Frances Tiafoe and Tommy Paul stopped in the second round of the ATP in Miami

In Miami, No. 12 seed Taylor Fritz lost in straight sets to Brazilian Thiago Seibot Wilde (76 ATP), 6-3, 6-4, after just one hour and 11 minutes of play.

Australian Christopher O’Connell needed almost two hours and a tie-break to reach the third round.

O’Connell, ranked 66th in the world, beat Francis Tiafoe (22 ATP) in straight sets 7-5, 7-6(5).

It was really unlucky for Tommy Paul, who had to end his career due to injury.

The number 13 seed won the first set 6-4 ahead of compatriot Martin Damm.

In the second set, with the score 2-1 in favor of Damm, Paul felt pain and was forced to forfeit after an hour and ten minutes.
