âWeâre going to have a fun night,â Fritz told ATP.com before the trophy ceremony.
âDefinitely popping some champagne in the locker room in a few minutes.â
The win delivered the cup to Team Worldâs Andre Agassi in his first tournament as captain, marking the teamâs third triumph in four years.
âJust seeing these guys on the bench getting pumped up, seeing a legend of the sport like Andre jumping out of his seat cheering for me, itâs impossible not to be so fired up and just give it everything you have,â Fritz said.
Earlier, Carlos Alcaraz kept Team Europeâs hopes alive with a 6-2 6-1 win over Argentine Francisco Cerundolo.
The win cut Team Worldâs lead to 12-9 in the first-to-13 event, where each Sunday match was worth three points.
Australiaâs Alex de Minaur had previously moved Team World within one point of the title, defeating Jakub Mensik 6-3 6-4.
The 26-year-old earned seven points for his team over the weekend, having also beaten Zverev and teamed up with Alex Michelsen for a doubles win on Saturday.
