Top seed Fritz wins third Eastbourne ATP title

Taylor Fritz completed a hat-trick of Eastbourne International ATP titles on Saturday as the American became the first three-time men's singles champion in the tournament's history.

The 26-year-old top seed defeated Australia's Max Purcell 6-4, 6-3 in the final of the Wimbledon warm-up event, a result that meant Fritz had not dropped a set all week at the tournament.

"I'm pumped. I always feel like I play well here," said Fritz, who also won Eastbourne in 2019 and 2022. "I kind of just had that feeling coming into the week as well. I did a great job."
