Taylor Fritz and his girlfriend Morgan Riddle

Earlier this week, Taylor Fritz defeated fellow American Jack Sock in the second round of the ATP Dallas Open 2022 in straight sets (6-1, 6-4). It was a magnificent match, which struck the heartstrings of every fan who witnessed it. He then went on to exit the tournament in the next round to Marcos Giron.

The 24-year-old is at his career-high, performing well since his first title in 2019. Out of the 24 matches, he’s played, the American has won 18 of them spectacularly. The American reached the fourth round of the Australian Open 2022, where he was defeated by Stefanos Tsitsipas.

“Happy Valentine’s Day to my favorite tennis influencer, Morgan Riddle. Love you lots,” was the caption.

Riddle is a social media influencer and has over 30,000 followers on Instagram, but she has a much bigger fanbase on TikTok. On the video-sharing social networking site, the American has more than 200,000 followers.

It should be noted that Taylor Fritz is one of the players who is being followed around by a filming crew as part of the Netflix series. Riddle was of the opinion that tennis was relatively “uncool” and “unknown” in the US, a perception she wanted to change with her video.

“I travel the world on the ATP Tour with my boyfriend who is the No. 1 ranked American tennis player. Right now, the crew from Netflix who made the F1 Drive To Survive is on tour with us, filming the tennis version,” Riddle said. “It comes out next year, but tennis is relatively uncool and unknown in America so here is what you should know about the sport before [the series] comes out,” said Riddle.
