By 2026, she\u2019s been widely recognised \u2014 not just by fans, but by players, commentators and industry insiders \u2014 as one of the most influential women in men\u2019s tennis.<\/p>\n<p>Has Taylor Fritz Been Married Before?<\/p>\n<p>Before Fritz met Riddle, he was married to\u00a0Raquel Pedraza for three years.
