A season-best sixth final
It is Fritz’s sixth final on tour in 2026, the most he has made in a season. It was also his 15th indoor win of the year, the most on tour. The 10th-ranked American has won at least two ATP titles every year since 2022 and is chasing his second straight post-Washington title.
Fritz advanced to the semi-finals without playing his quarter-final, then Holger Run left with a minor hip injury. He will travel to the Nitto ATP Finals in Turin as the second alternate.
Musetti, who needed 2 hours 29 minutes to beat Hugo Humbert in the quarter-finals, became the first Italian to reach the last four in Stockholm since Fabio Fognini in 2018.
Standing in his way is Tirante, who beat him in Montreal
In the final, Fritz will meet Thiago Agustin Tirante, who defeated Alejandro Tabillo 7-5, 7-6 (1) to reach the first ATP Tour final of his career. The 51st-ranked Argentine won their only previous meeting, 7-5, 6-3 in Montreal in August.
Tirante is the first Argentine to reach a indoor final since Diego Schwartzman in Antwerp in 2021 and has won a career-best 31 tour-level matches this season.
