With Frances Tiafoe wrapping up his 2024 ATP season, the American has decided to take a vacation with his girlfriend, Ayan Broomfield, to unwind. During their romantic getaway, the couple enjoyed jet skiing, whale spotting, and other fun adventures.
Tiafoe and Broomfield first met in 2015, early in their tennis careers. The former had just turned pro and was on the verge of breaking into the top 100. Meanwhile, the latter was competing professionally, reaching a ranking of 467 in women’s doubles. Though she isn't currently ranked on the WTA Tour, she still takes time to hit the courts occasionally and frequently travels with Tiafoe, always cheering from the stands.
On Friday, Broomfield and Tiafoe shared images and videos from their vacation at an undisclosed location. In one of the pictures, Broomfield posted on her Instagram stories, saying that Frances' camera roll is one of her favorite places.
“Frances camera roll is my favorite places” - she captioned
She shared a few more pictures of them riding quad bikes together, and in another video, she humorously mistook a rock for a whale in the sea.
“I told everyone that I saw a whale…guys it was a rock” - Ayan Broomfield wrote

He finished his 2024 season with a 33-26 win-loss record, with the major highlight being his semifinal appearance at the US Open, where he was eliminated by his countryman Taylor Fritz.
