The consolation final of the Six Kings Slam is won by U.S. Taylor Fritz: the Serb currently No. 5 Novak Djokovic retired after losing the tie-break that decided the first set 7-4.

The first break points, three, were saved by Djokovic at 3-3. The 10th and 11th games are incredible: they both last 26 points, on 5-4 in his favor Nole misses four set points and on 5-5 he cancels six break points.

We eventually go to the tie-break and, from 4-4 with a minibreak on each side, Fritz operates the decisive stretch by winning three consecutive points and thus the set. At that point Djokovic decided to retire.
