Taylor Fritz reacted with disappointment about being omitted from the 2022 ATP Awards nominees list for Most Improved Player.

Fritz had a really good year overall winning his maiden ATP 1000 trophy in Indian Wells as well as getting to the ATP Finals. He did not get the nod in that category as the four spots went to Alcaraz, Rune, Cressy and Draper. He tweeted:

"Feel like I could’ve been nominated for most improved.... not saying I should win it or anything crazy like that but maybe just a nom."

His current coach Michael Russell backed the American on social media writing: "Disappointing to see that you weren’t nominated."

Kim Clijsters backed him as well writing: "Definitely."

It's not all doom and gloom for Fritz as he finished the year in the top 10 and he'll have a really good starting position for next year as he hopes to finally make a breakthrough at a grand slam.
