Naomi Osaka

Known for her distinct style and observant fashion sense, two-time US Open champion Naomi Osaka is one of the game's biggest trendsetters.

Though she lost in the first round, she made a memorable debut at the 2022 US Open in custom Nike from head to toe.

Naomi took the court in a custom lilac Nike dress and NikeCourt Air Zoom GP Turbo shoes inspired by her French bulldog "Butta".

Naomi's full match kit included a green warm-up trench and an oversized hip bag from her Nike capsule collection.

Off the court, Osaka is all about comfort and style—and repping her favorite anime.

During a pre-tournament event at the Lotte New York Palace, she paired a "Boruto" t-shirt with an oversized plaid layer and completed the look with her Nike x Louis Vuitton collab sneakers.

Rafael Nadal

On the court, Nadal is all about "alive" colors—preferring bright and lively hues, like this burgundy night-session kit with fuchsia pink headband, wristbands and warm-up jacket.

Gauff's top features fishnet sleeves and a graphic design while the sheer black skirt features a chevron pattern.

All eyes are on Coco's shoes, though: she helped design these unisex Coco GG1 sneakers—seen here in the "DigiCoco" colorway.

Off the court Gauff is all about comfortable cool-girl style, posting up a storm on Instagram wearing high-necked cropped tanks and relaxed-fit jeans.

The Wimbledon finalist has long preferred wearing basketball inspired kits on the tennis court.

Off the court it's more of the same for the Aussie, who wore practically the same hat and socks for a pre-tournament event in Manhattan.

Serena Williams

Talk about making a statement. In her farewell event, Serena stunned in a figure-skating inspired Nike outfit.

Originally, the skirt featured six layers—one for each of her US Open titles.

Serena's NikeCourt Flare 2 shoes featured a diamond Swoosh and solid gold shoelace tags, complete with 400 hand-set diamonds.
