Behind the Scenes at the French Open With Morgan Riddle
The influencer Morgan Riddle, who is the girlfriend of U.S. tennis player Taylor Fritz, is no stranger to documenting her time at the various tournaments, and this week she gives WWD a look at her time in Paris at the French Open.
Riddle stayed at Hotel Lutetia in the 6th arrondissement, featuring balconies with “quintessential romantic Parisian vibes,” and began each day with a coffee outing.

“Fabula is one of my favorite spots in Paris,” she says. “It’s situated in a private little garden in Le Marais and is perfect for a quiet cup of coffee and some reading.”
Riddle dressed for the rainy spring weather in a “comfortable but classy” trenchcoat by Boss. “I think a trenchcoat is a safe option in Paris — and I don’t have a ton of other options during a rainy week,” she says.
When not in her trench, Riddle was out in a tennis outfit by Wilson, which she partnered with earlier this year.
“Not to be biased…but I think they have the cutest kits for women,” she says. “Tenniscore is in.”
Riddle prefers to travel by bike or metro when in Paris, adding that taking public transportation is her go-to when on tour in any city.
“I think it’s a better way to experience the city,” she says.
In addition to the special macarons Laduree did in collaboration with Roland Garros, Riddle added some charms for her handbag as a souvenir.
“The rest of the summer will be spent traveling throughout the U.K. and Europe on the tennis tour and I’ve started a Jane Birkin-inspired collection of charms on my bag, adding one in each city I go to,” she says. “Eventually I’ll have to stop but for now, it’s my new little hobby.”
