Is that Taylor Fritz? We have already seen the 26-year-old American star turning heads with his stellar performances on the court this season. Now, perhaps it’s time for him to stun the tennis world with his new off-court looks! The American recently made a surprise cameo at Kygo’s LA concert where he joined the Norwegian artist on stage for his hit song, ‘Stargazing’. Renowned sports commentator Steve Weissman shared a glimpse of that moment on his X account. And the video clip featuring Fritz’s new hairstyle has got fans busy sending in their hilarious reactions.

Weissman captioned his tweet with, “Special guest @Taylor_Fritz97 crushed it at the @KygoMusic show in Hollywood!!” Initially, we saw some of the fans debating whether Taylor Fritz had really dyed his hair blonde. A few of them looked pretty convinced by that footage while others argued that it might be the lighting at the concert that made his hair look like that. Fritz was wearing a black cap, so it was pretty hard to jump to any conclusion based on a video clip. However, later on, multiple social media posts regarding the same led a few to conclude Fritz is indeed blonde now.

Fritz’s love for fashion has been reflected time and again through his off-the-court pursuits. During an interview with Town & Country, Taylor Fritz said, “The fashion off the court is something I’ve really been into.” He has been spotted multiple times walking on the Fashion Show with some really stunning outfits. Do fans love watching him on the Fashion Show as much as they love him playing on tennis courts? Well, that’s yet to be answered!

“Fashion in tennis is becoming bigger and bigger,” Fritz said this last year at the NY Fashion Week. Irrespective of whether fans like it or not, Taylor Fritz seems to be enjoying trying his luck in the fashion world. However, his recent experiment with his hair perhaps went a bit too far, as fans have now come out in numbers to say a few words about the new hairdo.

Tennis fans are a bit surprised to see Taylor Fritz’s new hairstyle

We have seen Taylor Fritz asking his fans multiple times on his IG account if he should bleach his hair or not. For example, in 2022, he shared a post on his IG account, stating, “Time for a cut..asked this question at the exact same time last year and it was a hard no..so let’s run it back..do we bleach it?” His girlfriend, Morgan Riddle, was among those who voted against Taylor Fritz’s blonde look that time. She reposted Fritz’s post captioning “Anyone who votes yes on this, I’ll personally fight you.” There have been multiple such instances where Fritz was seen sharing a similar poll on his social media account asking the fans, “Do we bleach the hair?”

This time, he didn’t ask, he went ahead with what he had in mind. His love for the blonde look is visible, but do the fans like this look? Seeing Fritz’s new blonde look some of the fans screamed, “He looks terrible.” A few even mocked Fritz saying, “Looks like a clown.” Some went a little too far and even brought Jannik Sinner into the discussion. A fan tweeted, “Sinner traumatised him so much that his hair turned white.” Did this hilarious tweet point to Fritz’s defeat at the hands of Sinner at the 2024 US Open final? Perhaps, yes! Amid multiple thumb-downs, a few also felt his new hairdo made him look nice and ready to “drop an album.”

In September this year, we saw both Taylor Fritz and Matteo Berrettini walking for the German fashion brand, BOSS at the Milan Fashion Week. Even that time, we saw some of the fans weren’t too happy with Fritz’s look. They picked the Italian’s look over the American at the BOSS SS25 show. Now after seeing, Fritz’s blonde look some of the fans look a bit confused. One of them wrote, “That’s not Taylor, surely.”

Like it or dislike it, this new look of Fritz’s has certainly managed to turn a few heads in the tennis world!  We’ve seen fans’ first reactions to his new look. Now it’ll be interesting to see Riddle’s reaction to Fritz’s new hairstyle.
