Brady, Roddick meet Elton John backstage



While everyone is making do with watching Rocketman, Jennifer Brady is out mingling with Elton John himself. The American landed backstage access in Atlanta this week during the icon's Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour.

It's common knowledge that John is a huge tennis fan. He's enjoyed countless matches and taken part in many exhibitions for charity, often alongside his pal Billie Jean King.

Brady has had a great year on tour, reaching her career-high ranking of No. 56 in October. Earlier in the season, she scored three wins over Caroline Garcia and reached the final of the 125K Series in Indian Wells. She also reached the semifinals on grass in Nottingham.
