An American influencer and content creator, Riddle has been by the world-ranked ATP star’s side since 2020, a regular presence at Wimbledon, the US Open and every tournament in between. But her profile extends far beyond courtside appearances. From demystifying the tennis tour to building a formidable digital following of her own, Riddle has carved out a space that blends sport, fashion and modern influence—on her own terms.

Morgan Riddle is a 28-year-old social media star who’s been taking the professional tennis world by storm alongside her partner, Fritz.
Appearing on an episode of the podcast, Hold On to Your Racket, she shared, “I grew up in Minneapolis, Minnesota, I’m from the Midwest originally. My dream was always to go to New York.”
According to her LinkedIn profile, she made this dream a reality, graduating from Wagner College in New York City in 2019, with a Bachelor’s degree in English Language and Literature.
After graduating, Riddle worked for eight months as a real estate agent at the company Compass, before transitioning to social media influencing full time.

Now, Riddle has leveraged her relationship with Fritz by sharing their travels to her social channels and offering an insight into the world of competitive tennis to those who may be less familiar with the sport.
Riddle’s own fame increased after a viral TikTok video where she said her mission was to make “tennis cool again” garnered over 810K likes and thousands of comments.
She followed this with a series of videos where she showed off her outfits and accessories while on tour supporting Fritz, serving up a refreshing courtside style that continues to make waves in sporting circles and beyond.
“I’ve done quite a few videos where I recreate outfits and those seem to resonate with people, especially with that Bella Hadid [look],” Riddle tells marie claire Australia.

Her partner Fritz is more than supportive of her endeavour, saying at a press conference at the 2022 Indian Wells Masters tournament that be believes Riddle’s commitment to the cause has garnered a renewed global interest.
“I think what she did was awesome for our sport. It got a ton of people looking at it.”
In an interview with CNN in November 2024, Fritz credited his partner for helping the mental edge required to compete in his high-pressure industry.
“I think it’s great to just kind of have someone who is with you, supporting you, helping keep you focused,” Fritz told reporters. “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.
“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.”

During the 2023 Wimbledon championships, Riddle was commissioned to create a lifestyle and fashion series called ‘Wimbledon Threads’.
The role was a serious step up for Riddle, who at the time shared news of the gig to her social channels, writing: “A year and a half ago, I posted a silly little TikTok of me picking out an outfit for a tennis match.
“Today, I’m mic’ed up and on court as the host for the official @wimbledon lifestyle and fashion series, Wimbledon Threads … Catch me on broadcast + Wimbledon channels over the next 2 weeks.”
Riddle said the opportunity was one she didn’t take lightly, sharing her excitement at partnering with the prestigious tournament with People.
“To be recognised by a tournament of that prestige is just a big win for me and people taking me a little bit more seriously in the tennis world, to be honest, because that’s something that I’ve struggled with,” she said.
“I guess the older, maybe more misogynist side of the tennis fan base is my biggest group of people that I’ve been working to win over a little bit.”
Since breaking new ground with Wimbledon Threads in 2023, Morgan Riddle’s presence within the tennis world has expanded far beyond courtside snapshots and fashion breakdowns. By 2026, she’s been widely recognised — not just by fans, but by players, commentators and industry insiders — as one of the most influential women in men’s tennis.
