Taylor Fritz's girlfriend Morgan Riddle tries to record him shushing French Open crowd, blushes after camera spots her

Taylor Fritz drew boos and whistles from the crowd after winning his second-round match against France's Arthur Rinderknech 2-6, 6-4, 6-3, 6-4 at the 2023 French Open on Thursday, June 1.

It was a high-octane and dramatic match that lasted two hours and 50 minutes. But the crowd, rooting for their home favorite, tried to disrupt Fritz's rhythm throughout the match.

Fritz vented his frustration at the end by making some angry remarks and shushing gestures. The atmosphere at Court Suzanne Lenglen grew even more hostile after that; the crowd's boos and whistles got louder amid Fritz's persistent shushing.

The World No. 8, known for his calm demeanor, was again disrupted by the raucous crowd during his post-match on-court interview. Their boos prevented former Wimbledon champion Marion Bartoli from asking the American any questions.

Amid such a tense atmosphere, Taylor Fritz's girlfriend Morgan Riddle was seen taking out her camera to capture the nonstop booing by the crowd. But after seeing her face on the main screen in the stadium, Riddle quietly put her camera down and blushed.

Riddle later posted an Instagram story of Fritz walking in the tunnel on his way out, jokingly shushing those around him.

"My man my man my man," Riddle captioned the video.

Taylor Fritz and Morgan Riddle started dating in 2020 and have been traveling together for Fritz's tournaments ever since. Riddle, a social media influencer, has been open about her goal of popularizing tennis in America.

In her own words, Riddle wants “to make tennis cool again.”

Taylor Fritz to face Francisco Cerundolo in the third round of the 2023 French Open

With his win over World No. 78 Rinderknech, Taylor Fritz has managed to reach the third round and thus equal his best showing at the French Open.

Fritz began his campaign in Paris this year with a comfortable 6-2, 6-1, 6-1 win over fellow American Michael Mmoh in the first round. In the third round, he will face Argentina's Francisco Cerundolo, the No. 23 seed.

Fritz last reached the third round of the French Open in 2020. That year the American was the No. 27 seed, and he bettered qualifier Tomas Machac (first round) and Radu Albot (second round) before being beaten by Lorenzo Sonego.

This year, Fritz is considered a dark horse for the title in Paris. He entered the competition on the back of strong results on clay, with semifinal appearances at Munich, Monte Carlo and Geneva being his best performances.
