Taylor Fritz’s girlfriend shares how she fell in love with New York

As the American tennis player is currently getting ready to play the Canadian Open just before the US Open, his girlfriend has been a constant support for him. She does not play tennis but shares a great love for the sport. Riddle was a New Yorker most of her teenage life before she adopted the globetrotting lifestyle of being a tennis player’s girlfriend.

She recently appeared on the Making Moves with TK podcast, where she talked about how there were a lot of movies that inspired her to go to New York.

Riddle said, “I watched Ugly Betty when I was like 14 years old and fell in love with New York. I feel like a lot of people for them, it’s like watching ‘Sex in the City’ or ‘Gossip Girl’ or something. But for me, I watched Ugly Betty, and I was like, I have to go there. So then I went to college in New York.”

Nevertheless, even after spending her teenage years in New York, she was just like any other Minnesota native who was not aware of the sport before getting to know Fritz.

Morgan Riddle had no knowledge of tennis

Last year, in an interview with Josefina Gurevich and Shravya Pant on the Hold On To Your Racquets podcast, Riddle said she hardly knew tennis before meeting the 25-year-old American tennis player. She also talked about how, just like other people from Minnesota, she was also into hockey but had no knowledge about playing a racket sport.
