"Now we’re just in the Big 2. I think the difference is back when we had the big three, I mean, I'm a lot better of a player now. I think obviously if I play well, I can play a close match with Carlos, like we saw. I need to continue to improve. That's just what my focus is. Obviously those two are ahead of everyone," Fritz said.

He added that the tournaments where others have chances are the ones where one of them opt out, like the Shanghai Masters. However, he felt even in such tournaments, the chances are slim for others.

"The draws are open when one of them... I mean, in Shanghai Carlos doesn't play, Jannik happens to lose, something like that. But no, I wouldn't say things are super open. If you want to win a big title, more than likely you're going to have to beat one of 'em, maybe both of 'em," Fritz added.
