Taylor Fritz is back in form after his startling loss to Mikael Ymer in the second round of the Wimbledon Championships. He then won the Atlanta Open, his 2nd title this year, and reached the semi-final of the Citi Open. However, the American champion is having a good time on the court, and his graph is rising.

Now, it looks like she has had enough with the negativity.
Riddle ran a two-week series on fashion and lifestyle, which was an instant hit. Though Fritz had a flat run this year, the grass-court major became a turning point for the influencer. But success came at a heavy price. She talked about the criticism and hate and how she overcame everything.
