“So excited to get my own custom Nike outfit for the US Open,” Sabalenka wrote on Instagram. “Can’t wait to get on court and start serving some lewks.”
The Belarusian’s racerback dress combines several shades of coral and red. It features an asymmetrical hemline and mesh elastic waistband, just like other skirts and dresses in the New York collection.
While the dress is not available for purchase, at least not yet, you can buy Sabalenka’s tennis shoes: NikeCourt Zoom NXT Noble Red.
For the third consecutive Grand Slam, Sabalenka has a chance to dethrone Iga Swiatek from the No.1 WTA ranking. During the New York fortnight, Swiatek will be spending her 74th and 75th consecutive weeks at the top, but the defending champion will have to go one round further than Sabalenka at the US Open to keep the prestigious position.
Belgium’s Maryna Zanevska will be Sabalenka’s first-round opponent in Flushing Meadows.
