Frances Tiafoe never misses a beat, always making time to catch a basketball game. Ahead of the Paris Olympics, the American took some time off to attend a WNBA game with none other than his girlfriend, Ayan Broomfield. The Maryland native went to watch the Washington Mystics take on the Phoenix Mercury. He shared his match experience on Instagram and his posts gave the fans a peek into his off-court interests while highlighting the thrilling environment of the WNBA as well.

In an exciting encounter on Tuesday, July 16, the Mystics fell short against the Mercury 87-96. Sharing some amazing clips and happy moments from the match, Frances Tiafoe wrote, “Been a minute since I’ve been at the crib had to pull up on my @washmystics nothing but love for dc sports.” The video showcased significant moments from the game and gave viewers an insight into Tiafoe’s hobbies and his passion for basketball off the tennis court.

Tiafoe also attended an exhibition NBA game between his local Washington Wizards and the Golden State Warriors last year at the Rakuten Japan Open Tennis Championships. The American tennis player engaged in talks with NBA Deputy Commissioner Mark Tatum and had interactions with players as well, including Stephen Curry. “I still didn’t really know until I got that email, but once I got that email that ‘You’re going to All-Star’ I was like, ‘This is crazy!’ I feel like it’s a big crossover,” the 26-year-old said, describing his experience.

Earlier this year, the WNBA player Arike Ogunbowale pulled Tiafoe’s legs by revealing that the tennis player always claims if he played in an NBA game, he could score at least 10 points.

What if Frances Tiafoe ever played an NBA match?

The three-time WNBA All-Star point guard for the Dallas Wings, Arike Ogunbowale, partnered with Tiafoe during the 2023 NBA All-Star Celebrity game. She stated, “He [Frances Tiafoe] always claims that if we put him in an NBA game, he’ll give at least 10 points, but I just let him think that, we know that’s not true, but I let him think that.”

Ogunbowale and Tiafoe participated in Team Wade, led by NBA legend Dwayne Wade, which included rapper 21 Savage and actor Ranveer Singh from India, among other well-known figures.
