26-year-old Raquel Pedraza is mostly known as the ex-wife of renowned Tennis player, Taylor Fritz, she is more than just that.
In the tennis world, she is also a great player, only without the fame and achievements of her ex-husband. She also never got to make it to the ATP and that is probably why she is mostly remembered as the ex-wife of the Tennis World No. 15.
During Pedraza’s 3-year-union with Taylor, they welcomed a son named Jordan whom they continue to co-parent despite their divorce in 2019.

Since then to date, she has been playing tennis and records show that she has done well for herself so far.
Although Raquel has gotten better at the sports over the years, she has yet to make an Association of Tennis Professionals ranking because she has not yet played at any major competition, unlike her ex-husband.
Fritz turned pro in 2015, a year before he got married to Raquel.
Pedraza’s Tennis Ranking
As already stated, Raquel’s career in tennis isn’t as grand as that of her ex-husband but she did hone her skills well enough to be considered worthy of mention.
On the International Tennis Federation data, the right-handed tennis player was ranked at No. 72 in the Junior Ranking back in 2014. At the end of the year, she rose to No. 67 however the next year (2015) she fell a couple of ranks below and was placed at 81.
