Making a fashion statement isn’t up everyone’s alley. An exquisite taste, coupled with how well a person finesses their wardrobe, is often taken under consideration. Recall the time when Taylor Fritz‘s girlfriend Morgan Riddle put a sultry spin on tennis whites at the Australian Open earlier this year. She donned a ruched skirt set, consisting of a backless halter top and tiered skirt, with accessories like a burgundy handbag, cherry dangle earrings and a diamond-encrusted bracelet, adding to the flair. Well, the American influencer is back in the spotlight. And, this time, she came draped with the dazzling fit in Tennis Paradise.
Before she had a chance to support her lover from the sidelines at the BNP Paribas Open – slated to commence on March 5 – Riddle found herself caught in the camera’s attention during a WTA rebranding program. Subsequently, Riddle described the particulars of her wardrobe capture in a post on the association’s Instagram handle.
The Minnesota native categorically revealed the source of her clothes, saying, “This sweater is American vintage. Jeans are from Citizens of Humanity. Sunglasses are from Miu Miu,” spoke Riddle on her spring look in Tennis Paradise. Furthermore, to perfectly address the ‘Riddle effect’, the post’s caption read – “If @moorrgs is at an event, you know we have to get all of the outfit deets from her!”

Undoubtedly one of the loudest supporters of the American star, Riddle recently posted a heartwarming reaction to her beau, making the cover photo of ‘Racquet’ magazine’s “No. 26” edition. She parted the snap with an adorable message for World No. 4 Fritz that read – “My lil cover starrr.” Ever since the couple featured in Netflix’s docuseries Point Break, Riddle has quickly become a famous personality in the sport.
In a curious twist, when Taylor Fritz, America’s current top-ranked tennis player, was featured in a New York Times portrait, the article’s primary focus was his girlfriend-turned-influencer, Morgan Riddle. “The most famous woman in men’s tennis” was how the New York Times dubbed the 27-year-old. And, her impact, has had a unique effect on Fritz as well.

Taylor Fritz opens up about embracing emotional support from his girlfriend, Morgan Riddle
Pro-tennis is a game of high stakes. Not only does it take blood, sweat and tears from players to achieve their goals, but it also requires them to channel and maintain their mental fortitude. Taylor Fritz is no exception to that, however, in his case, the American superstar has a supportive pillar to rely on.
During an interview with ‘CNN’ last year, Fritz talked about the ‘Riddle effect’ in his life. “I think it’s great to just kind of have someone who is with you, supporting you, helping keep you focused. As someone who had nothing to do with tennis before, in Morgan’s case, she’s done an amazing job over the years just kind of understanding.”

He further credited his girlfriend for helping him maintain the mental edge essential to win matches. “She gets it, and she also understands what it takes each week and throughout the year to help me play my best tennis and feel my best. I think that’s a big thing – I just kind of have someone helping me at all times.”
For now, Fritz will be looking to add another BNP Paribas title to his resume. He won his first ATP 1000 Masters crown in Indian Wells in 2022 by overpowering Spanish icon Rafael Nadal. Though he fell short of his title bid last year after departing in the R16, the American player will look to reverse that result and exploit the benefits of World No. 1 Jannik Sinner‘s absence.
