Morgan Riddle made it clear that she’s “not erased” from the tennis world because of her breakup with World No. 7 Taylor Fritz.
During a Wednesday appearance on the “Hot Smart Rich” podcast, Riddle — who is a lifestyle creator and co-founder of The 400 Club, a sports marketing agency and membership community centered on female sports fans — explained that she’s approaching the tennis world differently in her single era.
“I think I could still be [the most powerful woman in men’s tennis],” Riddle said when host Maggie Sellers Reum referred to her as such. “I still am gonna go to tournaments. I would still love to make content around tennis. I already have deals for the U.S. Open, I’m going to the U.S. Open.
“It’s not like I’m erased from that world. Obviously I’m going to enter into it in a different way, but I’ve had a lot of girls reach out and be like, ‘Please don’t leave the tennis world. We still want this sort of content and commentary around it.
“I’m still going to be there just in a different way and obviously not as much. But I’m not [anti] tennis because of [the breakup]. Him and I are still friends.”
Riddle and Fritz split in April after six years of dating.
She told Reum that she initiated the breakup and although the pair are on good terms, that she does not regret ending things.
During their relationship she cultivated a massive social media following with her fashion and lifestyle content and behind the scenes of men’s tennis while she traveled the world with Fritz on the ATP Tour.
They met through Raya, a private membership-based dating app, during the pandemic.
Riddle move to New York City after the split and launched her business, The 400 Club.
She added that her friends and family have never seen her this happy.
Fans have since called her “world’s best ex-girlfriend” after she sported a t-shirt with it following the breakup.
