After losing his SF match against Carlos Alcaraz by a fine margin at the 2025 Wimbledon, Taylor Fritz said that every time he gets the chance to play these guys, he learns a lot about what he needs to do in order to improve his game further. “Moving ahead, I just want to keep working on the things that are going to get me better, that are going to help me compete with these guys because at the end of the day, my ultimate goal is to win a Slam,” he added. Fritz also claimed that he strongly believes that he’d beat these guys (Alcaraz and Sinner) sooner or later, but for now, it’s all about the learning process.

Following that, Taylor Fritz made it to the QF of the 2025 Citi Open, but over there he went down to Alejandro Davidovich Fokina in three sets. But at the Canadian Open, he has gotten off to a stellar start. After winning his previous two matches in straight sets, he has now pulled off an incredible 7-6(4),6(5)-7,7-6(5) victory against Jiri Lehecka.

However, other than his incredible fight in this match, his girlfriend’s hilarious reaction while interacting with one of his teammates has now become the talk of the town in the tennis world. What did Fritz’s teammate say to her, though? We don’t know, but hearing his words, Morgan Riddle was seen giving a bizarre reaction by widening her eyes. And the cameraman didn’t miss the chance to get a snap of one of the “most famous women in men’s tennis.”

Born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the 28-year-old American internet personality, Morgan Riddle, is one of the most in-demand talents with tennis fans and sponsors. In fact, she once claimed that she received more than $10,000 typically for social media posts. Talking about her meeting with Taylor Fritz, she first met each other on Raya, a members-only dating app, and have been dating each other since 2020.

Morgan Riddle frequently attends Taylor Fritz’s matches and documents his tournaments on social media, often highlighting the fashion and lifestyle aspects of the sport. Her mission is to make tennis cool yet again!

Just a few days ago, Riddle celebrated his 28th birthday (July 31) in a very unusual way. She shared an IG story giving insight into her low-key birthday celebration and captioned that post with, “spending my birthday exactly how i want (in the middle of nowhere and speaking to no one) 🙏🏼🥲🥰.” Taylor Fritz winning the title at the Canadian Open could well be the perfect birthday gift for Riddle, now. What did Fritz say after securing his spot in the QF, though?

Taylor Fritz shares his thoughts on his incredible fightback against Jiri Lehecka

This was Taylor Fritz‘s fourth meeting with the Czech and the first since the 2023 Cincinnati Open. With this win, he has now taken his H2H record to 4-0 against Jiri Lehecka. Fritz has now reached the QFs at all nine ATP Masters 1000s. This match went on for almost three hours, and the American saved all nine break points against him, while Lehecka saved five.

During this match, there were times when we saw Taylor Fritz struggling a bit to find the court with his aggressive game, and he ended up the day with 48 errors. But nevertheless, a win is a win!

While sharing his thoughts about this match, Fritz said that during the later phase of the match, he felt it was more accepting of what was there for him tonight. He hit 16 aces in this match and committed just 5 double faults. “Luckily for me, I was serving really, really well tonight. He was too,” said Fritz.

Fritz is now only the fourth man to secure 35 wins this season. Furthermore, while sharing his thoughts about his incredible record (ninth active player to reach the QF in all nine Masters 1000s), he stated, “It’s really cool. It shows the consistency on all the different tournaments and surfaces. I guess what’s next is to go for semis.” However, he has only reached the SF in six out of the nine Masters 1000 events as of now. Can he defeat Andrey Rublev in the next match and book his spot in the last four of the 2025 Canadian Open?
