The tennis world is buzzing over Caroline Wozniacki‘s striking Adidas outfit at the US Open and the former world No.1 enjoys the spotlight.
Some fans are admiring her toned post-pregnancy figure, some spectators are drawn to the tournament solely captivated by her attention-grabbing attire, while others hate the idea of seeing too much skin and “wrestling fashion” on the WTA Tour. Wozniacki herself has a nonchalant response to the uproar, alluding to the Grand Slam’s reputation of being the perfect stage for fashion risks and daring outfits, stating, “I mean, it’s the US Open—why not?”
The provocative leotard is part of the Adidas Fall Slam Pro Set, which also includes a detachable pleated skirt. While Jessica Pegula and Elina Svitolina opted for the full ensemble, Wozniacki decided to mark her unexpected comeback from retirement with a bang, securing victories and turning heads with her bold fashion choice. As Tennis.com reports, the Dane commented:
At this point we may as well make a statement. I think that’s where I’m at.
The 33-year-old Wozniacki surprised her long-time apparel sponsor by returning to competition, so they didn’t have a look planned for her:
Because I didn’t let many people know for a long time, it was kind of a last-minute, ‘All right, let’s go for it, let’s try this one.’ I think it’s cool. Yeah, [this outfit] was a last-minute thing from Adidas. I think it’s really nice.
The bright royal hue of Wozniacki’s bodysuit and her Adidas Adizero Cybersonic tennis shoes is a nod to the iconic blue outfit Billie Jean King wore as she broke new ground for women in sport by winning the Battle of the Sexes in 1973.
During her pre-match warmups, Wozniacki sports the Adidas Fall Slam Premium Jacket, a stylish black oversized garment featuring adjustable elastic cords at the shoulders and hem, equipped with toggles for customizing the lengths of the sleeves and hemline by ruching them up.
As the 2023 US Open celebrates 50th anniversary of equal prize money, Wozniacki further enhances her appearance by accessorizing with luxury gold and diamond jewelry. Around her neck we can see two necklaces dedicated to her children, Olivia and James. Heart-shaped stud earrings, as well as stacked Cartier Juste un Clou and Love bracelets are all part of Wozniacki’s on-court look. Her Rolex watch stays in her bag during matches.
