Taylor Fritz Joins Eight Sleep: Elevating Tennis Performance Through Sleep Innovation

Taylor Fritz
NEW YORK – Eight Sleep, the pioneering sleep fitness company, has announced a new partnership with Taylor Fritz, the top-ranked American male tennis player. As an Athlete Ambassador and Investor, Fritz joins the brand’s mission to optimize athletic performance through improved sleep. This collaboration marks Eight Sleep’s official entry into tennis—a demanding sport that requires athletes to maintain peak condition year-round, with high-stakes tournaments, Grand Slams, and a rigorous travel schedule. For Fritz and other emerging tennis talents, every aspect of preparation, including quality rest, plays a crucial role in achieving a competitive advantage.

Fritz joins over 300 elite athletes already using Eight Sleep’s technology to enhance recovery, including stars like MLB’s Aaron Judge, NFL’s Brock Purdy, NBA’s Jimmy Butler, F1’s Lewis Hamilton, and the EF Cycling Team.

In today’s competitive landscape, sleep has become a new frontier in athletic performance. Fritz adopted Eight Sleep’s Pod system in early 2023, aiming to refine his recovery process and gain an edge on the court. With the Pod’s clinically validated technology—shown to enhance sleep quality by up to 32% and boost key recovery metrics like deep sleep and heart rate variability—Fritz saw immediate improvements in his physical readiness and mental clarity, essential for high-performance athletes.

“From my first experience with the Pod, I was amazed by how much better I felt during intense training cycles,” said Fritz. “It’s helped me recover faster, stay more alert, and maintain focus during long days of training on and off the court. It’s been an essential tool for my game.”

As an ambassador and investor, Fritz is now committed to promoting the Pod as a must-have for aspiring tennis players worldwide. He will travel with a Pod for consistent sleep optimization throughout the tournament circuit, including Grand Slams and potential appearances with Team USA in Paris. Additionally, Fritz will collaborate with Eight Sleep to raise awareness about sleep fitness and the critical role of rest in athletic performance.
