Taylor Fritz is on the cusp of achieving his American dream as he prepares for the US Open final. The tennis star secured his spot by defeating fellow American Frances Tiafoe with a hard-fought 4-6, 7-5, 3-6, 6-4, 6-1 victory, making him the first U.S. player to reach the New York final since Andy Roddick in 2006.
If Fritz triumphs over Jannik Sinner, who eliminated Jack Draper, he will become the first American male to win the US Open since Roddick’s 2003 victory at Flushing Meadows. Fritz, 26, has been at the forefront of American tennis in recent years, and now he has his sights set on capturing his first Grand Slam title.
### Taylor Fritz’s Net Worth
Although his net worth may seem modest compared to other top players, Fritz is estimated to be worth around $3 million (£2.3 million). However, with his strong showing at the US Open, his earnings are set to rise substantially due to prize money and potential endorsement deals.
### Influencer Girlfriend
Fritz is in a relationship with 27-year-old influencer Morgan Riddle, who has garnered over 500,000 followers on TikTok. Riddle made waves at Wimbledon this year when Fritz faced Alexander Zverev in the fourth round, with Zverev reportedly unhappy with her enthusiastic celebrations from the players’ box.
Riddle has also made headlines with her efforts to make tennis more relatable to younger audiences, including a now-deleted 2022 video where she claimed she was “on a personal mission to make tennis cool again.” While the video sparked some backlash, especially from older tennis fans, Fritz came to her defense, saying, “I think what she did was awesome for our sport. It got a ton of people looking at it.”
### Career Earnings
Fritz has amassed an impressive £13 million in career prize money, with £1.9 million earned in 2024 alone, up to his US Open run.
### US Open Prize
If Fritz wins the US Open, he will more than double his annual earnings, as the champion will take home £2.74 million. The runner-up will still earn a substantial £1.37 million. For Fritz, whose best Grand Slam performance so far had been reaching the quarter-finals, this would mark the largest payday of his career.
