Watch: Grigor Dimitrov, Andrey Rublev and others pose hilarious questions to Taylor Fritz
Taylor Fritz was recently grilled by some of his peers, including Andrey Rublev and Grigor Dimitrov, as they posed intriguing questions that caused the American to reveal some interesting tidbits about himself.
Fritz booked his spot in the quarterfinals of the 2023 Miami open on Tuesday, March 28, overcoming Holger Rune in straight sets.
The American No. 1 took some time out from his busy practice schedule to feature in a video organized by the ATP tour that was shared on their social media channels.
One of the many interesting questions was asked by Grigor Dimitrov. The Bulgarian was curious to know if Fritz still ate Hot Pockets before practice. Fritz replied:
Thats so funny. Well the backstory is that him and I have had the same coach at one time, he was person that we worked a lot with. One time I just got screamed at because I was three minutes late to practice, because I was eating Hot Pockets!"
"That was like my favorite breakfast when I was like 15-16 years old. So the answers is no. I havent had a Hot Pocket in years, honestly," he added.
Andrey Rublev had a seemingly straightforward question, which he claimed he first asked Fritz way back when they were on the junior circuit. He asked how many stars there were on the American flag. Fritz replied:
"There is no way I couldn't asnwer that when I was a kid. I don't know what he is talking about," he laughed. "And I also couldn't get it wrong. I think its 50."
Other players enquired about Fritz's hair routine and his reason for being called "The Golden Key."
