Behind the Scenes at the French Open with Morgan Riddle
“I’m staying at the iconic Hotel Lutetia in the 6th arrondissement of Paris this week. The balconies are quintessential romantic Parisian vibes.”

“Every day, I do a coffee run to get some fresh air first thing in the morning. Fabula is one of my favorite spots in Paris. It’s situated in a private little garden in Le Marais and is perfect for a quiet cup of coffee and some reading.”
“Today I’m wearing Boss to Roland Garros. I think a trench coat is a safe option in Paris (and I don’t have a ton of other options during a rainy week). Boss has really great options for matches, comfortable but classy!”
“Paris in the spring has volatile weather, and the first few days of the tournament have been rain delay after rain delay.”
“Laduree did a clever collaboration with Roland Garros this year and is selling these macaron boxes on site. I thought it would be such a great and unique souvenir!”
“Walking around the grounds trying to stay out of the rain! I forgot an umbrella and that was definitely a big mistake.”
“At each match, a player’s team gets a designated player box where usually the coach and family sits. We don’t get to choose where they are but my favorite is when it’s behind the baseline because I can get a better view of the court.”
“Earlier this year, I partnered with Wilson who is a big fish in the tennis world. Not to be biased… but I think they have the cutest kits for women. Tenniscore is IN. (This dress is from their new arrivals for the French Open).”
“I’ve been in this city a lot and tend to usually bike (when it’s nice out) or take the metro over Ubering. I mostly use public transportation when I’m on tour. I think it’s a better way to experience the city!”
“The rest of the summer will be spent traveling throughout the UK & 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. Eventually I’ll have to stop, but for now, it’s my new little hobby.”
