Morgan Riddle spent years as one of the most recognizable girlfriends in professional sports. She's apparently not interested in doing it again.

Riddle, 28, who recently split from tennis star Taylor Fritz after roughly six years together, told Elle that dating another professional athlete is officially off the table.
"I'll never date an athlete again," Riddle said.
That's one of the rules on what Riddle described as a 33-point list of "non-negotiables" for her next relationship. Others include shared life goals, political compatibility, intellectual intimacy and no sports betting or gambling.
The declaration comes after Riddle built much of her public profile while traveling the tennis circuit with Fritz, one of the top American players in the sport.
The two began dating in 2020 after meeting on Raya and moved in together within weeks. Riddle eventually left her traditional social-media job as traveling with Fritz became a full-time lifestyle, then turned that visibility into a successful career of her own.
By 2023, The New York Times had dubbed her "the most famous woman in men's tennis."
Riddle told Elle that she and Fritz split earlier this year and remain on good terms. Rather than issuing the usual celebrity breakup statement, she announced her newly single status by posting a photo of herself wearing a "world's best ex-girlfriend" T-shirt.
She's since moved to New York and has spoken openly about the importance of maintaining her own career and financial independence, particularly after spending years closely associated with Fritz's.
Riddle isn't done with sports, either. She co-founded The 400 Club, a sports marketing agency and community aimed at female fans, and even wants to expand its reach into hockey.
So she's still interested in the games. Just not, apparently, in dating the players.
