Morgan Riddle On Netflix’s ‘Fly On The Wall’ Filming With Taylor Fritz

Taylor Fritz was one of the stars of Netflix’s hit tennis docuseries Break Point. The show followed him throughout the 2022 season as he hit highs and lows, from winning his first ATP Masters 1000 title at Indian Wells to losing in the first round of the US Open.

With the American every step of the way was his girlfriend, Morgan Riddle, who has been committed to Fritz’s mission of helping expand tennis to the masses.

“The last couple years we’ve just developed such a good partnership,” Riddle said during a recent Break Point reunion, in conversation with Frances Tiafoe’s girlfriend Ayan Broomfield. “[With] what we’re both doing with my social stuff and his tennis, we’re just having this collective goal of him having the best career possible, and bringing tennis to a younger audience.”

Riddle is very familiar with the world of content being a social media influencer. She was impressed with how Netflix producers handled the filming process.

“I would say how fly on the wall it was. I think with reality TV, which I guess this technically would be, there’s always been talk about how they will kind of push you to say certain things or encourage certain things to happen,” Riddle said. “But that was not the case at all. It was very natural. They kind of were just there with cameras following what our life is actually like.”

Fritz has been clear about how much Riddle has helped him on and off the court.

“He’s so supportive of me, I’m so supportive of him,” Riddle said. “It’s really nice, I think, in terms of me, like specifically helping his tennis. I’m very organised and Type A and making sure he’s on time for everything. That’s not exactly his personality, but I think I help in that aspect a lot. And also just being an emotional support board for him.”

What is an example of something Riddle pushes back on with Fritz during the course of their lives on the ATP Tour?

“I’m sure you guys probably guess what I’m going to say. It’s making sure that video games are not happening during the tournament,” Riddle said. “Like, the computer is shut at 8 p.m. type thing. Foe is much more social than Taylor is. Taylor just wants to play League of Legends. So we’ve got to try to limit that as much as possible.”
