Tennis star Frances Tiafoe reveals he did shots with Taylor Swift: "I'm a Beyonce guy"

Frances Tiafoe shares exciting moment with Taylor Swift, revealing they did shots together after a match.

Tennis star Frances Tiafoe recently shared an exciting and unexpected moment with pop sensation Taylor Swift. The athlete revealed during a conversation on The Pivot Podcast on January 7, hosted by NFL stars Ryan Clark, Fred Taylor, and Channing Crowder, some of the most famous athletes and celebrities he's become close with since getting to hold the No. 17 spot in the world in the ATP tennis rankings.

“I’ve said it in real time, whoever I’m with, like, ‘Yo, I’m out here taking shots with Taylor Swift,' " Tiafoe said, confirming that he was able to share drinks with Swift, 35, and Travis Kelce, also 35 — as well as some other star athletes, including Kelce's teammate Patrick Mahomes. "Granted, I gotta keep it a buck, we’re here on The Pivot — I'm a Beyoncé guy. But at the moment I'm like, man, like, this is crazy, she's the biggest star out here."

Although Tiafoe didn’t specify when he hung out with the singer-songwriter and Kansas City Chiefs tight end, it’s likely he was referring to a post-game gathering in a suite at Arrowhead Stadium after the Chiefs’ victory over the Denver Broncos on November 10. Tiafoe attended the game with his girlfriend, Ayan Broomfield, who shared a TikTok from the outing. The video featured the two couples posing together, with one clip showing Swift playfully sticking out her tongue.

According to Tiafoe, a pivoting point in his tennis carrer came in 2022, when he defeated 22-time Grand Slam champion Rafael Nadal, knocking him out of the U.S. Open.  

Swift, who has been in the spotlight for her musical achievements and high-profile relationships, has made headlines for her various public appearances, often mingling with athletes, celebrities, and friends across different industries. Tiafoe’s revelation has added a new layer to the growing connection between sports and entertainment, where athletes and musicians often cross paths in shared social circles.
