Taylor Fritz has been living the dream at Flushing Meadows this season, progressing to his maiden Grand Slam final in New York. Fritz defeated fellow American Frances Tiafoe in the semifinals 4-6, 7-5, 4-6, 6-4, 6-1. He is often supported by family and friends in his player's box during his matches, and his team includes his girlfriend Morgan Riddle.
Fritz and Riddle met in Los Angeles in 2020 through the private dating app, Raya. They travel together, and Riddle was present during Fritz's Olympic campaign in Paris. The duo has also appeared together on Netflix's tennis-themed docuseries, "Break Point."
Talking to People magazine in August 2023, Fritz said,
"It's great to have somebody who can support you and your goals."
She has traveled the world with the American tennis star and shares her lifestyle and travel choices with her followers on social media.
Before beginning his US Open campaign, Fritz told Sports Illustrated,
"It’s not easy with all the traveling we do, but we love being on the road and exploring new cities. We always find time for each other. … It’s those small moments that help us stay connected.”
Who is Taylor Fritz's girlfriend?
Morgan Riddle was born on 31 July 1997 to Heather Riddle and Rob Kimm and grew up in Saint Paul, Minnesota. She is the eldest of the four children in her family, and her mother is an executive at Minnesota Public Radio. Her father is a fishing writer.
After attending Wagner College in Staten Island, Riddle worked in real estate and also as a media director for "Love Your Melon," and a non-profit organization called 'Gamers Outreach Foundation' that provides video games to hospitalized families.
This year, Fritz and Riddle completed four years together, and the American tennis star expressed his emotions through a social media post, saying,
"4 years baby!!! @moorrgs love you and can’t imagine doing it all without you"
While the cameras focus on Fritz's tennis, Riddle's style and strong fashion statements often catch the media's and fans' attention. While supporting her boyfriend, she endorses brands like Coach and Diamonds by David Yurman, as she is one of the most followed women in men's tennis. Her social media content has increasingly focused more on tennis since meeting Fritz, including videos about outfits she wore during Grand Slams like the Australian Open, and she has collaborated with Wimbledon for a video series titled "Wimbledon Threads with Morgan Riddle."
Meanwhile, World No. 12 Fritz has defeated some big names on his route to the final, like Germany's Alexander Zverev and Norway's Casper Ruud. He now faces an even tougher test in the final against World No.1 Jannik Sinner.
