Carlos Alcaraz received praise from social media influencer and the girlfriend of Taylor Fritz.
The American number one has been in a relationship with Morgan Riddle since 2020 after meeting on a celebrity dating app.
She often travels with Fritz around the tennis circuit and can be seen in the stands cheering him on during his matches.
After several years being in a relationship with the 2024 US Open runner-up, she is familiar with some players on tour, such as four-time Grand Slam winner Carlos Alcaraz.
Taylor Fritz’s girlfriend says what she thinks of Carlos Alcaraz
Taylor Fritz’s girlfriend Morgan Riddle is currently with her partner at the Australian Open as he prepares to try and win his first title.
The 27-year-old decided to watch one of his practice sessions with Alcaraz on Rod Laver Arena, and filmed some clips which she added to a vlog posted on Tik Tok.
During the video, Riddle commented on the training session, during which she provided a positive assessment of Alcaraz.
“I went to his [Fritz] practice with Alcaraz, who is genuinely one of the funniest and nicest people on tour,” Riddle told her 578,000 Tik Tok followers.
“First point he [Taylor] almost broke his racket and then thought I better not, I only have three for the whole tournament. I never come to practice so sometimes I forget that he does this everyday, it looks like a lot of work.”
Can Taylor Fritz and Carlos Alcaraz play each other at the Australian Open?
Fritz is seeded fourth for the Australian Open, while Alcaraz is placed one seed higher.
They have been placed on opposite sides of the draw, and they will not be able to face each other unless they reach the final.
The pair have played one another just twice with the Spaniard winning on both occasions and in straight sets.
Both players are aiming to win their first Australian Open crown, and this would be the first Grand Slam title of his career.
Alcaraz would become the youngest man to win all four Grand Slam titles should he lift the Norman Brookes Challenge Cup in a fortnight’s time.
