In her latest move, Riddle has gone viral for 'Squat and Slay' pose at the US Open. Riddle is on her quest to make 'tennis cool again.' Well, she has at least made it viral.

How does Riddle handle being Fritz's girlfriend
Riddle met Fritz on a dating app Raya and has been dating the American tennis player for five years now. The New York Times had describe Riddle as 'Most Famous Woman in Men's Tennis' in 2023 and that may be true but not everyone is a fan of her work. In a recent interview to Vouge, Riddle admitted: "I get DMs from really angry Republican women who like tennis, but it’s not a loss in my mind. I wouldn’t be friends with them in real life.”
Being a WAG (Wife And Girlfriend), Riddle acknowledged 'negativity' around the title as well: "I see misogynist comments—always from idiot men. I do think there’s more visibility on what girls are doing outside of just attending their partners’ matches.”
