Before jetting off to Melbourne, Taylor Fritz’s girlfriend Morgan Riddle also confirmed that she will be attending Fritz’s matches at the ongoing Miami Open.

The 26-year-old said that while she might miss out on his opening match, she looks forward to cheering him on if he advances to the next round.

"(ps taylor doesn’t even play his first match in Miami until this weekend so I will be back for the open after his first round)," she wrote on Instagram.

Taylor Fritz was recently in action in Indian Wells, where he was the champion in 2022, losing in the fourth round to Holger Rune.

The American is in pursuit of a second Masters 1000 title and an eighth career title at the 2024 Miami Open. He's also aiming for his second trophy of the season, having defended his Delray Beach title in February.

Fritz, the 12th seed, received a bye in the opening round. The American No. 1 is expected to commence his campaign against Brazil’s Thiago Seyboth Wild in the second round on Saturday, March 23.

It's worth noting though that several Miami Open matches from Friday were postponed to Saturday due to unceasing rain. As per reports, the stormy weather is likely to last through the weekend.
