In case you hadn’t noticed the sudden influx of Instagram posts related to tennis (and Honey Deuces), the US Open has officially begun. Ask anyone in New York, and they’ll tell you it’s their favorite sporting event of the year—perhaps even their favorite event in the city period. There’s something to watch all day and all night, and if you can score tickets, it’s always worth the sometimes lengthy journey to get to (and from) Flushing Meadows for a match or two. Hint: Skip the chaotic rideshare experience and take the L.I.R.R. instead.
In addition to tennis, there are also plenty of stylish moments to keep track of whenever the US Open kicks off. It’s basically a precursor to New York Fashion Week, but with a sportier touch that always results in memorable outfits. Already, we’ve spotted Kaia Gerber in fall 2026’s first It bag and a Little Black Dress (by Yana Matkivski) for the tournament’s style history books. On the court, style icons of the sport, Roger Federer and Serena Williams, both made epic returns, with the latter also joining Federer’s close friend Anna Wintour in the stands to take in the fanfare.

Paige Paul’s First Outfit Reveal
Wimbledon might be the Grand Slam with an all-white rule, but that doesn’t mean attendees at other tournaments can’t be influenced by the elegant dress code. Paige Paul, for instance, attended the US Open on Sunday to support her husband, Tommy Paul, in his first-round match against Coleman Wong. For the occasion, she chose a white tank top and matching capris, finishing off the look with a bandana and a huge pair of diamond studs.
