World No. 1 Jannik Sinner's quest to conclude his outstanding season with an ATP Finals trophy continued as the top seed a 6-4, 6-4 victory over Taylor Fritz, moving to 2-0 in the Ilie Nastase Group.
Fritz put Sinner through his paces in the early stages of the contest. The Italian, however, raised his game when required to register a one-hour, 40-minute triumph, improving to 3-1 in the pair's ATP Head-2-Head series.
Sinner, who is chasing his Tour-leading eighth title of 2024, now looks in strong contention to progress from the group, having not dropped a set. He will seek to extend his perfect 2-0 record in the Ilie Nastase Group when he takes on fourth seed Daniil Medvedev on Thursday.
Fritz, who is 1-1, aims to secure a crucial win against Alex de Minaur in his bid to advance to the semi-finals for a second time (2022).
