<span data-preserver-spaces="true">The Laver Cup was named after the legendary Australian player Rod Laver. Laver acquired the moniker "Rocket" because of his quickness and devastating left arm. As an amateur and a professional, he rose above the sport. After Don Budge in 1938, Laver was the only player to win the Calendar Grand Slam. He did so twice, in 1962 and 1969, with the latter being the only time a man has done it in the Open Era.  </span>

Singles and doubles are played in the best of three sets, with the usual scoring system. If the score is tied at one set each, the third set is a 10-point match tiebreaker.

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Ben Shelton: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, and more</b></h2>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Who is Ben Shelton? </b></h2>
Ben Shelton is a professional tennis player from the US, born on October 9, 2002. In July 2022, he made his ATP debut at the Atlanta Open, defeating Ramkumar Ramanathan. He was a member of the Florida Gators' tennis team in college. He won the Gators' first national championship as a freshman in 2021.

Shelton announced that he will turn professional in August 2022. Now he is ranked 17 in ATP. 2023 was a breakthrough year for Shelton as he reached the quarterfinals of the<a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/tennis/australian-open/"> Australian Open</a> and went as far as the semifinals at the<a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/tennis/us-open/"> US Open</a>. Shelton even won his first ATP 500 title at Tokyo in 2023. How far will he rise this year?
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Ben Sheltonâ€™s Early LifeÂ </b></h2>
Ben Shelton is from a familyÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/atp-tennis-news-all-you-need-to-know-about-20-year-old-american-tennis-prodigy-ben-sheltons-parents/" target="_self" rel="noopener">that carries tennis as its core value</a>. He was born to <strong>Bryan Shelton</strong> and <strong>Lisa Witsken Shelton</strong>. Bryan, his father, is a former professional tennis player and Florida Gators men's tennis coach. His mother, Lisa Witsken Shelton, mostly played on the junior tour. His uncle, <strong>Todd Witsken</strong>, was also a professional tennis player. His sister, <strong>Emma</strong>, plays tennis at the collegiate level at the University of Florida.

Shelton was born in Atlanta, Georgia. There his father served as the head coach of the Georgia Tech women's tennis team when Ben was still an infant. He now resides in Gainesville, Florida, and attended Buchholz High School.

When he was a child, Ben Shelton did not want to play tennis. Instead, he played football and preferred to make a career in the sport. Even though both of his parents had a deep bond with tennis, they did not put pressure on him to play the racket sport. Eventually, Shelton began playing tennis consistently at the age of 12 under the tutelage of his father, Bryan.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Â Ben Sheltonâ€™s Girlfriend</b></h2>
Ben Shelton is in a relationship with <strong>Anna Hall</strong> who is a track athlete. He made headlines at the US Open 2023, and he went on to praise his girlfriend, Anna Hall, calling her the <em>"exceptional athlete"</em>Â in the relationship.

Since they began dating in 2021, the tennis player has kept his love life discreet, only uploading a few images of the track star. He did, however, break his silence on their relationship in 2022, telling Tennis Channel that she keeps him humble.
<div class="jsx-feed42bfb597238f">

Prakash Amritraj called her an exceptional athlete.Â <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.hellomagazine.com/brides/501709/ben-shelton-private-relationship-with-famous-athlete-anna-hall/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In reply, Shelton said</a>, "<em>Yeah, she's better than me. She got a bronze medal at the World Championships this year and she definitely keeps me humble. I'm not even the best athlete in my relationship. So, [that's] something to work on</em>."

It is clear that Shelton is thoughtful of his relationship with Hall, and the couple is going strong. But the young couple have not yet discussed anything about tying the knot.

</div>
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Ben Sheltonâ€™s Net Worth 2024</b></h2>
As of 2024, Ben Shelton' Net Worth is approximately $2 Million. Earning around $1.4 Million in prize money, Shelton has been able to amass such wealth at such a young age.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Ben Sheltonâ€™sÂ  Career</b></h2>
<h3 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc"><strong>ITF Junior Career</strong></h3>
At the age of 16, Shelton pondered competing in ITF Junior events abroad, but his father discouraged him, stating, <em>"Why do you need to travel abroad when you're not the best [player in the United States]?"</em> Shelton gives utmost credit to his father's advice as the reason for his tennis growth, because he was not constantly traveling and instead had a routine.

Shelton reached a career-high of No. 3 in the USTA Boy's 18s division and No. 306 in the ITF Junior. He finished third in the 2020 USTA Boys 18s Singles Winter Nationals and first in the 2019 USTA Boys 16s Doubles Clay Court tournament.
<h3 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc"><strong>College Career</strong></h3>
Shelton first decided to play collegiate tennis for the Florida Gators. He played the sport under his father Bryan Shelton's tutelage. The 20-year-old finance major was imperative in leading the Gators to their first national championship. Shelton had a 10-2 singles record and won the Gators' championship-clinching match.

Shelton starred as a sophomore in 2022, finishing 37-5 in singles matches and capturing the NCAA Singles Championship over August Holmgren. He concluded the year as the ITA's No. 1 singles player.
<h3 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc"><strong>ATP Professional Career</strong></h3>
Shelton reached his first Challenger final in July 2022 at the Rome Challenger. His ATP Tour debut took place at the 2022 Atlanta Open where he played after receiving a wild card. He then gained a wild card into theÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/tennis/western-and-southern-open/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Cincinnati Masters</a>, where he reached the third round before being ousted byÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/john-isner/" target="_self" rel="noopener">John Isner</a>. Shelton would then receive a wildcard to compete in the main draw of theÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/tennis/us-open/" target="_self" rel="noopener">US Open</a>Â in August 2022, marking it as his first Grand Slam appearance.

He was defeated in five sets in the first round. However, in his opening round match, he delivered the then second-fastest serve of the US Open event at 139 miles per hour.

By the end of the year, he had won three challenger titles in three weeks and debuted in the top 100 rankings by the end of the year. Shelton made his debut at theÂ Australian Open in 2023 year, reaching the quarterfinals for the first time in his career.

Ben Shelton

Ben Shelton: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, and more Who is Ben Shelton? Ben Shelton is a professional tennis player from the US, born on October 9, 2002. In July 2022, he made his ATP debut at the Atlanta Open, defeating Ramkumar Ramanathan. He was a member of the Florida Gators&#8217; tennis team in college. He won the Gators&#8217; first national championship as a freshman in 2021. Shelton announced that he will turn professional in August 2022. Now he is ranked 17 in ATP. 2023 was a breakthrough year for Shelton as he reached the quarterfinals of the Australian Open and went as far as the semifinals at the US Open. Shelton even won his first ATP 500 title at Tokyo in 2023. How far will he rise this year? Ben Sheltonâ€™s Early LifeÂ  Ben Shelton is from a familyÂ that carries tennis as its core value. He was born to Bryan Shelton and Lisa Witsken Shelton. Bryan, his father, is a former professional tennis player and Florida Gators men&#8217;s tennis coach. His mother, Lisa Witsken Shelton, mostly played on the junior tour. His uncle, Todd Witsken, was also a professional tennis player. His sister, Emma, plays tennis at the collegiate level at the University of Florida. Tennis &#8211; Australian Open &#8211; Melbourne Park, Melbourne, Australia &#8211; January 15, 2023 Ben Shelton of the U.S. during a practice session REUTERS/Loren Elliott Shelton was born in Atlanta, Georgia. There his father served as the head coach of the Georgia Tech women&#8217;s tennis team when Ben was still an infant. He now resides in Gainesville, Florida, and attended Buchholz High School. When he was a child, Ben Shelton did not want to play tennis. Instead, he played football and preferred to make a career in the sport. Even though both of his parents had a deep bond with tennis, they did not put pressure on him to play the racket sport. Eventually, Shelton began playing tennis consistently at the age of 12 under the tutelage of his father, Bryan. Read More: Ben Shelton Draws Striking Parallels With America Legend Pete Sampras Despite Agonizing Acapulco Exit Â Ben Sheltonâ€™s Girlfriend Ben Shelton is in a relationship with Anna Hall who is a track athlete. He made headlines at the US Open 2023, and he went on to praise his girlfriend, Anna Hall, calling her the &#8220;exceptional athlete&#8221;Â in the relationship. Since they began dating in 2021, the tennis player has kept his love life discreet, only uploading a few images of the track star. He did, however, break his silence on their relationship in 2022, telling Tennis Channel that she keeps him humble. Prakash Amritraj called her an exceptional athlete.Â In reply, Shelton said, &#8220;Yeah, she&#8217;s better than me. She got a bronze medal at the World Championships this year and she definitely keeps me humble. I&#8217;m not even the best athlete in my relationship. So, [that&#8217;s] something to work on.&#8221; It is clear that Shelton is thoughtful of his relationship with Hall, and the couple is going strong. But the young couple have not yet discussed anything about tying the knot. Ben Sheltonâ€™s Net Worth 2024 As of 2024, Ben Shelton&#8217; Net Worth is approximately $2 Million. Earning around $1.4 Million in prize money, Shelton has been able to amass such wealth at such a young age. Ben Sheltonâ€™sÂ  Career ITF Junior Career At the age of 16, Shelton pondered competing in ITF Junior events abroad, but his father discouraged him, stating, &#8220;Why do you need to travel abroad when you&#8217;re not the best [player in the United States]?&#8221; Shelton gives utmost credit to his father&#8217;s advice as the reason for his tennis growth, because he was not constantly traveling and instead had a routine. Read More: Ben Shelton Enjoys â€˜Brother of Mexicoâ€™ Tag as He Becomes Fan Favorite at Acapulco Open Shelton reached a career-high of No. 3 in the USTA Boy&#8217;s 18s division and No. 306 in the ITF Junior. He finished third in the 2020 USTA Boys 18s Singles Winter Nationals and first in the 2019 USTA Boys 16s Doubles Clay Court tournament. College Career Shelton first decided to play collegiate tennis for the Florida Gators. He played the sport under his father Bryan Shelton&#8217;s tutelage. The 20-year-old finance major was imperative in leading the Gators to their first national championship. Shelton had a 10-2 singles record and won the Gators&#8217; championship-clinching match. Shelton starred as a sophomore in 2022, finishing 37-5 in singles matches and capturing the NCAA Singles Championship over August Holmgren. He concluded the year as the ITA&#8217;s No. 1 singles player. ATP Professional Career Shelton reached his first Challenger final in July 2022 at the Rome Challenger. His ATP Tour debut took place at the 2022 Atlanta Open where he played after receiving a wild card. He then gained a wild card into theÂ Cincinnati Masters, where he reached the third round before being ousted byÂ John Isner. Shelton would then receive a wildcard to compete in the main draw of theÂ US OpenÂ in August 2022, marking it as his first Grand Slam appearance. He was defeated in five sets in the first round. However, in his opening round match, he delivered the then second-fastest serve of the US Open event at 139 miles per hour. By the end of the year, he had won three challenger titles in three weeks and debuted in the top 100 rankings by the end of the year. Shelton made his debut at theÂ Australian Open in 2023 year, reaching the quarterfinals for the first time in his career. His run came to an end with a four-set defeat to fellow American Tommy Paul. Post the Australian Open, Shelton did not have a great run and did not go far in any tournament. But his run in the US Open 2023 was great as he found himself in the semifinals, set to face Novak Djokovic. He also set the record for the fastest serve (149 mph) in 2023 against Tommy Paul in round four. In this year&#8217;s Australian Open, Ben Shelton powered through till the third round.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Frances Tiafoe</b><b>: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, wife and more</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">With a big smile and a powerful forehand to go with a mighty serve, American Frances Tiafoe has established himself as one of the future grand slam winners on the current tennis circuit. Like his American counterpart, </span><a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/taylor-fritz/"><span style="font-weight: 400">Taylor Fritz</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400">, Tiafoe is yet to win a grand slam but has instilled enough confidence in the minds and hearts of a lot of big brands that he is a real deal. As of March 2024, Tiafoeâ€™s net worth was $8 million. He has recorded on-court earnings of over $10 million, thanks largely to his consistent performances on the ATP circuit, which have resulted in three titles so far.</span>

[caption id="attachment_760074" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-760074 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-1338603663.jpg" alt="Frances Tiafoe" width="1920" height="1397" /> NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 05: Frances Tiafoe of the United States looks frustrated during his match against Felix Auger-Aliassime of Canada in the fourth round of the men's singles at the US Open at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center on September 05, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by TPN/Getty Images)[/caption]

<span style="font-weight: 400">Tiafoe was the brand ambassador for Adidas in his early days. However, he then signed a deal with Nike in 2017. Tiafoe uses the Yonex VCORE Pro racket for his matches. The Japanese company also sponsors Tiafoe. In 2019, the CEO of the watch brand, Tag Heuer, secured a deal with Frances Tiafoe. The American player also represents Nesquik with the food and beverage giant Nestle. In 2023, Tiafoe signed a deal with Stella Artois and also has a deal with Cadillac. Tiafoe is also represented by IMG, an American global sports agency.</span>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Who is Frances Tiafoe?Â </b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Fondly called the Big Foe, Francis Tiafoe, born on January 20, 1998, is an American professional tennis player. He hails from Hyattsville, Maryland, and turned into a pro in 2015. He is currently ranked 18th in the menâ€™s ATP rankings but will be ranked as high as world number 10 in June 2023. He has won three ATP singles titles but has yet to show his might at the ATP Masters 1000, year-end finals, or the Grand Slams. Since 2015, Tiafoe has been dating Ayan Broomfield, a professional tennis player on the ITF circuit, but they only made their relationship public three years later.Â </span>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Frances Tiafoeâ€™s early lifeÂ </b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Frances Tiafoe was born to immigrant parents </span><a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/atp-tennis-news-all-you-need-to-know-about-american-tennis-star-frances-tiafoes-immigrant-parents-and-family/"><b>Constant and Alphina Tiafoe</b></a><span style="font-weight: 400"> and came from a poor background. His father worked as a janitor at a tennis center in Maryland. With the job, he also received living quarters in the center where Frances and his brother stayed for most of the week. His mother worked as a nurse and would have the kids on her nights off.</span>

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1199474 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2022-09-07T210127Z_706264395_MT1USATODAY19000829_RTRMADP_3_TENNIS-US-OPEN.jpg" alt="Frances Tiafoe" width="1920" height="1300" />

<span style="font-weight: 400">Frances never went to a conventional school, as he had to move a lot for tennis. He got his diploma from Laurel Springs School, which is an online school based in California, USA. The parents decided to get Frances and Franklin, his brother, into tennis, as they were able to have them coached for free. Since the two were five, Constant had them enrolled in the Junior Tennis Champion Centre. Both learned much of their tennis there. Misha Kouznetsov eventually took on Frances when he was eight.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Tiafoeâ€™s parents hail from Sierra Leone and moved out of the country as it was torn apart due to internal issues. Constant used to work in a diamond mine and escaped the mine and fled to the UK in 1988. Constant moved to the USA in 1993. Alphina Tiafoe was able to escape her country after she won a green card in a lottery and arrived in the US in 1996.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">The two met in the USA and connected well as they were from the same country. They married and had Franklin and Frances Tiafoe in 1998. Frances and his twin Franklin started learning tennis at a young age and have grown up with the sport. Franklin, unlike his brother, wasn't as disciplined and kept encountering bad luck with the sport. But he still plays and aims to become a coach soon.</span>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Frances Tiafoeâ€™s girlfriend</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Frances Tiafoe is surrounded with people associated with tennis, that also includes his girlfriend. </span><a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/atp-tennis-news-all-you-need-to-know-about-american-star-frances-tiafoes-tennis-playing-girlfriend-ayan-broomfield/"><b>Ayan Broomfield, Tiafoe's girlfriend, is also a tennis player</b></a><span style="font-weight: 400">. Although she hadn't advanced as far as Tiafoe, she still enjoyed a strong tennis journey. Broomfield was born in Toronto, Canada, on August 13, 1997. Tiafoe and Broomfield first met through a common friend, Vickie Duval, who suggested the two should date. The two started dating in 2015 but made their relationship public after three years. The couple has a massive fan following on social media platforms, and one of their videos on George Floyd helped Frances receive the Arthur Ashe Humanitarian Award. Ayanâ€™s net worth is between $1 million and $2 million, but he also earns money through sponsorship deals.Â </span>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Frances Tiafoeâ€™s net worth 2024</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Frances Tiafoeâ€™s net worth is estimated to be $8 million. As of 2024, Fritz has won $10,438,756 in prize money so far. Ever since beating Rafael Nadal at the 2022 US Open, Tiafoeâ€™s net worth has taken a steep rise in the past couple of years.</span>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Frances Tiafoeâ€™s careerÂ </b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Frances Tiafoe made his ATP debut in 2015 after enjoying decent success at the junior level. After grinding for three years straight and losing to top players across surfaces, Tiafoeâ€™s maiden moment of glory came at the 2018 Delray Beach Open, where he defeated Peter Gojowczyk in the final and also won his maiden ATP title. The win also made him the youngest American since Andy Roddick to win an ATP title. Later that year, Tiafoe also reached the fourth round of the Miami Masters, his best performance at the event to date. He also reached the final of the Portugal Open and followed it up with a third round at Wimbledon, breaking the top 50 of the ATP rankings.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">In 2019, Tiafoe raised the bar at the Australian Open, defeating Kevin Anderson and </span><a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/grigor-dimitrov/"><span style="font-weight: 400">Grigor Dimitrov</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400">, making it to the fourth round, before losing to Rafael Nadal. Unfortunately, he could not build up to this start and struggled for the majority of the next two seasons. At the 2021 US Open, he reached the fourth round for the second straight year, the only American since Andy Roddick and Mardy Fish to achieve the feat in 2011â€“12. However, his best at the US Open came in 2022.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Tiafoe reached the fourth round of the US Open after defeating Diego Schwartzman, but he came up with an upset when he defeated </span><a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/rafael-nadal/"><span style="font-weight: 400">Rafael Nadal</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400"> in the quarterfinals, the biggest win of his career to date. He also became only the third American after Andy Roddick and Blake to beat Nadal in a grand slam. Tiafoe made it to the semifinals but lost to </span><a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/carlos-alcaraz-garfia/"><span style="font-weight: 400">Carlos Alcaraz</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400"> in a grueling match that lasted for five sets and over four hours.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">2023 started off on a good note for Tiafoe, where he helped the US tennis team win the United Cup, beating Italy in the final. After reaching the third round at the Australian Open, he broke into the top 15 rankings for the first time in his career. At Indian Wells, he reached the semifinals before losing to Daniil Medvedev.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Though he emerged victorious at the US Menâ€™s Clay Court Championships, he failed to keep the momentum at the Grand Slams, losing early at the French Open and Wimbledon and making it to the quarterfinals of the US Open, where he lost to compatriot Ben Shelton.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">The start of 2024 was good for Tiafoe, who made it to the semifinals of the Delray Beach Open but made an early exit in Round 2 at the Australian Open.Â Â </span>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Frances Tiafoeâ€™s partnerships and endorsements</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">With his warrior-like attitude on the tennis court and a dynamic personality off it, leading brands have associated themselves with Frances Tiafoe. Sports apparel brand Nike signed Frances Tiafoe in 2016, and two years later, released the Big Foe special edition sneakers honoring the American tennis player.

Frances Tiafoe

Frances Tiafoe: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, wife and more With a big smile and a powerful forehand to go with a mighty serve, American Frances Tiafoe has established himself as one of the future grand slam winners on the current tennis circuit. Like his American counterpart, Taylor Fritz, Tiafoe is yet to win a grand slam but has instilled enough confidence in the minds and hearts of a lot of big brands that he is a real deal. As of March 2024, Tiafoeâ€™s net worth was $8 million. He has recorded on-court earnings of over $10 million, thanks largely to his consistent performances on the ATP circuit, which have resulted in three titles so far. NEW YORK, NEW YORK &#8211; SEPTEMBER 05: Frances Tiafoe of the United States looks frustrated during his match against Felix Auger-Aliassime of Canada in the fourth round of the men&#8217;s singles at the US Open at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center on September 05, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by TPN/Getty Images) Tiafoe was the brand ambassador for Adidas in his early days. However, he then signed a deal with Nike in 2017. Tiafoe uses the Yonex VCORE Pro racket for his matches. The Japanese company also sponsors Tiafoe. In 2019, the CEO of the watch brand, Tag Heuer, secured a deal with Frances Tiafoe. The American player also represents Nesquik with the food and beverage giant Nestle. In 2023, Tiafoe signed a deal with Stella Artois and also has a deal with Cadillac. Tiafoe is also represented by IMG, an American global sports agency. Who is Frances Tiafoe?Â  Fondly called the Big Foe, Francis Tiafoe, born on January 20, 1998, is an American professional tennis player. He hails from Hyattsville, Maryland, and turned into a pro in 2015. He is currently ranked 18th in the menâ€™s ATP rankings but will be ranked as high as world number 10 in June 2023. He has won three ATP singles titles but has yet to show his might at the ATP Masters 1000, year-end finals, or the Grand Slams. Since 2015, Tiafoe has been dating Ayan Broomfield, a professional tennis player on the ITF circuit, but they only made their relationship public three years later.Â  Frances Tiafoeâ€™s early lifeÂ  Frances Tiafoe was born to immigrant parents Constant and Alphina Tiafoe and came from a poor background. His father worked as a janitor at a tennis center in Maryland. With the job, he also received living quarters in the center where Frances and his brother stayed for most of the week. His mother worked as a nurse and would have the kids on her nights off. Frances never went to a conventional school, as he had to move a lot for tennis. He got his diploma from Laurel Springs School, which is an online school based in California, USA. The parents decided to get Frances and Franklin, his brother, into tennis, as they were able to have them coached for free. Since the two were five, Constant had them enrolled in the Junior Tennis Champion Centre. Both learned much of their tennis there. Misha Kouznetsov eventually took on Frances when he was eight. Tiafoeâ€™s parents hail from Sierra Leone and moved out of the country as it was torn apart due to internal issues. Constant used to work in a diamond mine and escaped the mine and fled to the UK in 1988. Constant moved to the USA in 1993. Alphina Tiafoe was able to escape her country after she won a green card in a lottery and arrived in the US in 1996. The two met in the USA and connected well as they were from the same country. They married and had Franklin and Frances Tiafoe in 1998. Frances and his twin Franklin started learning tennis at a young age and have grown up with the sport. Franklin, unlike his brother, wasn&#8217;t as disciplined and kept encountering bad luck with the sport. But he still plays and aims to become a coach soon. Frances Tiafoeâ€™s girlfriend Frances Tiafoe is surrounded with people associated with tennis, that also includes his girlfriend. Ayan Broomfield, Tiafoe&#8217;s girlfriend, is also a tennis player. Although she hadn&#8217;t advanced as far as Tiafoe, she still enjoyed a strong tennis journey. Broomfield was born in Toronto, Canada, on August 13, 1997. Tiafoe and Broomfield first met through a common friend, Vickie Duval, who suggested the two should date. The two started dating in 2015 but made their relationship public after three years. The couple has a massive fan following on social media platforms, and one of their videos on George Floyd helped Frances receive the Arthur Ashe Humanitarian Award. Ayanâ€™s net worth is between $1 million and $2 million, but he also earns money through sponsorship deals.Â  Frances Tiafoeâ€™s net worth 2024 Frances Tiafoeâ€™s net worth is estimated to be $8 million. As of 2024, Fritz has won $10,438,756 in prize money so far. Ever since beating Rafael Nadal at the 2022 US Open, Tiafoeâ€™s net worth has taken a steep rise in the past couple of years. Frances Tiafoeâ€™s careerÂ  Frances Tiafoe made his ATP debut in 2015 after enjoying decent success at the junior level. After grinding for three years straight and losing to top players across surfaces, Tiafoeâ€™s maiden moment of glory came at the 2018 Delray Beach Open, where he defeated Peter Gojowczyk in the final and also won his maiden ATP title. The win also made him the youngest American since Andy Roddick to win an ATP title. Later that year, Tiafoe also reached the fourth round of the Miami Masters, his best performance at the event to date. He also reached the final of the Portugal Open and followed it up with a third round at Wimbledon, breaking the top 50 of the ATP rankings. In 2019, Tiafoe raised the bar at the Australian Open, defeating Kevin Anderson and Grigor Dimitrov, making it to the fourth round, before losing to Rafael Nadal. Unfortunately, he could not build up to this start and struggled for the majority of the next two seasons. At the 2021 US Open, he reached the fourth round for the second straight year, the only American since Andy Roddick and Mardy Fish to achieve the feat in 2011â€“12. However, his best at the US Open came in 2022. Tennis &#8211; Australian Open &#8211; Melbourne Park, Melbourne, Australia &#8211; January 20, 2022 Frances Tiafoe of the U.S. in action during his second round match against Taylor Fritz of the U.S REUTERS/Morgan Sette Tiafoe reached the fourth round of the US Open after defeating Diego Schwartzman, but he came up with an upset when he defeated Rafael Nadal in the quarterfinals, the biggest win of his career to date. He also became only the third American after Andy Roddick and Blake to beat Nadal in a grand slam. Tiafoe made it to the semifinals but lost to Carlos Alcaraz in a grueling match that lasted for five sets and over four hours. 2023 started off on a good note for Tiafoe, where he helped the US tennis team win the United Cup, beating Italy in the final. After reaching the third round at the Australian Open, he broke into the top 15 rankings for the first time in his career. At Indian Wells, he reached the semifinals before losing to Daniil Medvedev. Though he emerged victorious at the US Menâ€™s Clay Court Championships, he failed to keep the momentum at the Grand Slams, losing early at the French Open and Wimbledon and making it to the quarterfinals of the US Open, where he lost to compatriot Ben Shelton. The start of 2024 was good for Tiafoe, who made it to the semifinals of the Delray Beach Open but made an early exit in Round 2 at the Australian Open.Â Â  Frances Tiafoeâ€™s partnerships and endorsements With his warrior-like attitude on the tennis court and a dynamic personality off it, leading brands have associated themselves with Frances Tiafoe. Sports apparel brand Nike signed Frances Tiafoe in 2016, and two years later, released the Big Foe special edition sneakers honoring the American tennis player. Tiafoe uses Yonex equipment on the court and he currently uses Yonex Vcore Pro 97 tennis racquet. Leading food brand Nestle signed Tiafoe in 2020, and is their global brand ambassador. He also has endorsement deals with Tag Heuer, Stella Artois, and Cadillac. Recently, Tiafoe joined Evian, the renowned global water brand as its global brand ambassador.

His 2004 season saw him win three Grand Slam titles, as well as becoming the number 1 ranked player for the first time. He ended the year by winning the year-end championships for a second time. Additionally, Federer would play against his greatest rival, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/rafael-nadal">Rafael Nadal</a>.

Since then, Nadal and Federer traded Grand Slam titles until <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/novak-djokovic/">Novak Djokovic</a> stepped onto the scene. His entry would see the formation of the Big 3 of the Open Era.

Owing to the knee injury Federer faced after <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/tennis/wimbledon-championships/">Wimbledon</a> 2021 and the subsequent surgery, he had to be away from the sport for a significant amount of time. Also, the Swiss star mentioned that he went under the knife to lead a normal life with his family post-retirement. He went on to miss the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/tennis/australian-open/">Australian Open</a> 2022.

This would be the same case for the rest of the Swiss Maestro's career as he was unable to play any Grand Slams. His final match and 1750th match was in the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/laver-cup/">Laver Cup</a>. He played alongside his long-time rival Rafael Nadal against Americans Jack Sock and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/frances-tiafoe/">Frances Tiafoe</a>.

Eventually, Federer discovered the Swiss shoe company, On. He first found out about the company when he saw his wife wearing them. Later, Federer would see people on the streets of Switzerland donning shoes made by On.

He eventually wore the shoes in training and loved them. Federer approached the board of directors of On and signed a deal with them which included a 3% stake in the company. With Federer on board, On was launched into the mainstream. The company reported immense growth in 2021.

Owing to their newfound popularity, the Swiss shoe company was able toÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/atp-wta-tennis-news-nearly-two-billion-worth-gigantic-move-from-roger-federer-as-he-deepens-his-grip-further-as-a-businessman-with-a-new-venture/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sign WTA number 1 Iga Swiatek and the up-and-coming American Ben Shelton</a>.

Federer's desire to return to the Tour with the Australian Open in 2021 had to, unfortunately, be pushed aside as he didn't have enough time for recovery. The Swiss star made a comeback at the 2021 French Open, followed by a quarter-final run at the Wimbledon Championships.

Post Wimbledon, Federer found the need to have yet another knee surgery and pulled out of the rest of the ATP tour.

Taylor Fritz

Taylor Fritz: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, wife and more Ever since Taylor Fritz dreamt of becoming a professional tennis player, he had this great American legacy to carry forward made by his peers, John McEnroe, Pete Sampras, Andre Agassi, and other greats. Fritz has yet to find a way to win a grand slam in his eight-year-long tennis career but has already shown enough sparks to attract a lot of brands, endorsement deals, and partnerships. As of March 2024, Taylor Fritz&#8217;s net worth was $3 million. He has recorded on-court earnings of over $14 million and is regarded as the torchbearer of American tennis for the next 5â€“10 years. Taylor Fritz has a commercial partnership with Nike, which is his on-court kit sponsor and covers his headgear, shirts, shorts, and shoes. Austrian sports equipment company Head provides him with racquets, and the American has had a partnership with Swiss luxury watchmaker Rolex since September 2019. He has also partnered with Optimum Nutrition, Lavazza Coffee, Waterdrop, and Maestro Dobel Tequila. Taylor Fritz is also an investor and has invested in an esports team called ReKTGlobal. He is also the owner of a beautiful house in San Diego, California, but resides in a luxurious house in Rancho Palos Verdes. Who is Taylor Fritz? Â  Taylor Fritz is touted as the next big thing in American tennis, though he is far from living up to the expectations and, more importantly, living up to his potential. Born on October 28, 1997, Taylor Fritz hails from Rancho Santa Fe, California, in the US, and turned into a professional tennis player in 2015. He is currently ranked 12th in the menâ€™s ATP rankings but has been ranked as high as world number 5 in February 2023. He has won seven ATP singles titles, including the 2022 Indian Wells Masters. Since June 2020, Fritz has been in a relationship with Morgan Riddle, a fashion influencer. Taylor Fritzâ€™s early lifeÂ  Taylor Fritz is the son of former tennis players Kathy May and Guy Henry Fritz. While Kathy reached as high as number 10 in the world in 1977, Guy was named the professional development coach of the year in 2016. Taylor is also the great-great-grandson of David May, a renowned American businessman and founder of the May stores.Â  Fritz followed in the footsteps of his parents and started showing a keen interest in the sport at the age of 2. While growing up, Taylor idolized Pete Sampras and Juan Martin Del Potro. His game is a combo of Pete and Potro, as he has a strong serve from the baseline and a good net game as well.Â  Oct 13, 2021; Indian Wells, CA, USA; Taylor Fritz (USA) celebrates as he defeated Jannik Sinner (ITA) in their fourth round match during the BNP Paribas Open at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden.

Before he turned 19, Taylor broke into the Top 100 players in the world and entered the Top 25 in the world in August 2019.

However, before entering this relationship, Taylor was married to Raquel Pedraza, a former WTA-ranked player, who last played at the 2015 Australian Open.

Taylor was only 18 at the time. Both Fritz and Prdraza welcomed a son named Jordan in January 2017. However, two years later, the two athletes divorced in December 2019. In January 2020, Fritz started dating Riddle, and the duo has been together since then. They also featured in the 2023 Netflix Series &#8211; Break Point Together. The couple has traveled together to Itlay for the 2022 Nitto ATP Finals, and Riddle regularly accompanies her tennis boyfriend around the world.
