Miami Living: How does the sport influence your style? Are there any fashion icons you look up to, or unique places you draw inspiration from? Morgan Riddle: I have said for years my biggest inspiration for matches doesn’t come from a person but from the city. Being on tour means constantly bouncing between cities with totally different aesthetics and energy, and that always seeps into how I dress. Tokyo makes me want to wear structured, minimal pieces. Paris brings out the vintage, romantic side of my style. Miami is full of glam, color, and textures. I love pulling inspo from the places we go and mixing it with classic tennis references like crisp whites, pleats, and sporty details. In Australia I wear Australian designers, in the UK I wear British designers. I’m so grateful to be able to travel and experience so many different cultures and the cities influence my outfit choices heavily - whether it’s a designer or just a vibe. Miami Living: You’ve spent a lot of time in Miami—what are your absolute must-visit spots in the city? Any new spots or hidden gems you discovered while in town? Morgan Riddle: I’m really into BigFace right now—Jimmy Butler’s coffee shop. I’ve been going there every morning for my daily coffee and the aesthetic is very Shanghai. Taylor and I also love dinner at COTE in the Design District. Their wedge salad is one of my favorite dishes I’ve ever had. Miami Living: Between matches and events, what were some of your favorite things you did around the city? What was the ultimate highlight of your trip? Morgan Riddle: I went to the Coconut Grove Farmers market for the first time! I had seen a TikTok of it a few days before which inspired me to go and get produce for the week. This is the one tournament where we actually get to be “home” since we have a place in Miami so I try to take advantage of the access to a kitchen. Miami Living: You’ve been immersed in the tennis world for years now. How has your perspective on the sport evolved since being with Taylor? Morgan Riddle: Honestly, it’s changed a lot. When I first started going to Taylor’s matches, I didn’t fully understand the sport—I was kind of just there to support him. But over time, I’ve developed such a deeper appreciation for how intense and nuanced tennis is. It’s not just physical,
