Leading American tennis player Taylor Fritz let his skills do the talking on Tuesday, reaching his first Wimbledon semifinal after defeating Karen Khachanov in four sets. But he wasn’t done there and fired back at his League of Legends critics with a perfect punchline that shows his love of Summoner’s Rift.
“Someone on League of Legends told me to go touch grass, so I did,” Taylor said on X (formerly Twitter) after he became the only American man to reach the semifinals or better at a non-hardcourt major at Wimbledon 2025.
