Taylor Fritz is used to the spotlight as the United States' highest-ranked male tennis player. However, the World No. 9 recently traded in his match kit for the glitz and glam of Style Magazine.
Featured on the cover of the July/August issue, the 25-year-old Fritz posed in stylish sweaters and overcoats to add his name of ATP Tour stars who have made their way to magazine stands this year.

Last month, British No. 1 Cameron Norrie stepped in front Tatler's cameras for chic photoshoot with the fashion and lifestyle magazine. A semi-finalist at Wimbledon in 2022, Norrie posed alongside fellow Britons Jack Draper and Katie Boulter for the publication.

Billed as "the new British tennis superstars", the trio was photographed in retro styles fitting the storied tradition of their home major.
The cover story, now live on Tatler's website, begins with Alex de Minaur's shoutout to girlfriend Boulter during an on-court interview at last year's Wimbledon.
Norrie and Draper are far from the only ATP stars to grace the pages of fashion magazines in recent months. In addition to Carlos Alcaraz's February Vogue feature, both the Spaniard and Norway's Casper Ruud have appeared on the cover of L'Equipe this year.
Ruud also posed for Vogue Scandinavia, where he was the focus of a February spread.

The month of May saw Jannik Sinner appear on the cover of Sportweek in Italy, while Holger Rune featured in Icon this June in Spain. Also in June, Lorenzo Musetti was on the cover of Undici in Italy.
Going back to January, a collection of young stars were highlighted in GQ as "the new golden age of tennis". Among those featured and photographed were Frances Tiafoe, Taylor Fritz, Felix Auger-Aliassime, Matteo Berrettini, Stefanos Tsitsipas, Ruud and Rune.
Watch this space — and your local newsstands — to keep tabs as more ATP stars step into the fashion spotlight.
