It was 18-time Grand Slam champion, Chris Evert who initially introduced the concept of subtle dainty jewelry while playing on the court. Bringing a twist to the tennis jewelry collection, now Taylor Fritz’s girlfriend has come out with a new collection after collaborating with a small business brand that she found in June 2021.
She took to her Instagram stories to launch her collection “Morgan x Lottie Tennis’. She took her followers through the journey of her first collection. It is a small golden tennis racquet on a chain. There is a bracelet and a necklace piece. She stated, “Last 6 months Lottie, and I have been working on a tennis collection. We wanted to make pieces that were dainty, high quality, and perfect for everyday wear.”

However, the dainty structure of the pieces made a fan wonder if it was unisex. For that, Riddle gave an answer after bringing her boyfriend Taylor Fritz into the frame, who can be seen wearing the locket.
She stated, “T Fritz approved,” as the player smiled for the camera.
