Taylor Fritz has proved his worth on the court multiple times. However, the rise is not always smooth, as was proved by the crowd at the French Open. The American tennis star has secured a third-round match at Roland Garros against Francisco Cerundolo. Fritz’s second round win triggered the crowd a bit more than anyone expected.
However, Fritz chose to see the silver lining of the booing that he used in his favor. And his girlfriend Morgan Riddle too also made sure to get the drama on record.

Fritz, as the French Open crowd made very clear, was not the crowd’s favorite. After he and Arthur Rinderknech had a grueling four-set match, the crowd wanted their countryman to go ahead in the third round.
Fritz brought his best game to the crowd and defeated the French player with a score of 2-6, 6-4, 6-3, 6-4. He also channelized their booing into his motivation to play even better, as he confessed later on. Consequently, the celebration turned out to be a cold one. He put his finger on his lips and shushed the crowd as a reply to all the booing.
