Taylor Fritz has always been known for his powerful serves and calm demeanor on court — but his latest practice session? Pure madness.
Caught on camera by a lucky fan during a routine warm-up, Fritz pulled off a move so unexpected it left everyone gasping. No, it wasn’t a trick shot or some high-tech racquet spin. It was… well, something much weirder.
Mid-practice, Fritz suddenly dropped his racquet, sprinted to the net, and started twerking. Yes, you read that right. The usually serious tennis star broke into a full-on dance, shaking it like it was the finals of a dance-off.
Fans watching live quickly took to social media, flooding Twitter and Instagram with memes, GIFs, and even petitions to add “twerking” as an official tennis skill. Hashtags like #TwerkFritz and #ServeAndShake began trending instantly.
“Is this even legal?” one fan asked, half-joking, half-awestruck. Another commented, “Forget the Wimbledon trophy — he should win ‘Best Dance Move’.”
Fritz’s coach reportedly burst out laughing but said, “Hey, if it helps him loosen up and keeps the crowd entertained, why not?”
Of course, the tennis purists are clutching their pearls, but the younger fans are loving the break from stiff, buttoned-up tennis stars. After all, who wouldn’t want a little extra fun on the court?
Taylor hasn’t spoken publicly about the twerk-tactic yet, but social media chatter is already suggesting this might become a signature move.
Could this be the start of a new era where tennis meets TikTok? One thing’s for sure — Fritz just served up a viral moment no one saw coming.
