I’m at every stop of the tennis tournament—5 outfit ideas to wear this Grand Slam season
Ever since Posh and Becks, I’ve been obsessed with the style of sports spectatorship, often led by the WAGs (wives and girlfriends of athletes) who watch the game days of the officials. as an opportunity to showcase their style while also showing support for the sport. This year has truly ushered in a modern era of new WAGs, including celebrities like Taylor Swift, who is dating Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce, and Alix Earle, who is dating dating Miami Dolphins player Braxton Berrios. With such famous women entering the WAG game, there will be more focus on what they wear on game day.
While I was looking for new WAGs to follow, one from the tennis community caught my attention. Morgan Riddle—girlfriend of a high-ranking American tennis player Taylor Fritz—has made a huge splash in the tennis world as a strong advocate of the sport and her distinctive style of play. In 2023, The New York Times describes her as “the most famous woman in men’s tennis,” and she has since expanded her sporting resume to Formula One, attended the recent Miami Grand Prix with Charlotte Tilbury. Tennis is one of those sports known for its spectator style and high aesthetics, and with tennis tournaments taking place in glamorous locations around the world, it’s no surprise that tennis WAGs are winning when it comes to sports spectator style.
I recently attended the Miami Open, which was my first time watching a tennis match, and when planning my outfit, I thought, “Who better than Riddle for tips on what to wear to tennis?” racket?” I wanted to know her favorite courtside fashion moments from past games.
I finally met Riddle in Miami at this year’s Miami Open. Riddle was wearing the cutest outfit Gaia cult dress And clutch With a green tone extremely suitable for a tennis match, on top are white high heels. Dressing up as a WAG with Riddle for the day turns out to be as hot as you’d expect. I joined Riddle in the VIP room where she was watching the men’s final.

Wimbledon 2023
“This is a classic Ralph Lauren look. The official Wimbledon colors are actually purple and green, but I find people tend to lean towards white and green if they switch to the color scheme theme. Sometimes, I like to go all out in tennis with a sweater around my shoulders and this seemed like the perfect opportunity to do so!”
