From Curry to Hamilton, celebrities step out at US Open final

 


NEW YORK — Stars from the worlds of sports, fashion and the arts turned out in force to watch the U.S. Open final between Aryna Sabalenka and Jessica Pegula on Saturday night. Olympic gold medalists Steph Curry and Noah Lyles, Formula One star Lewis Hamilton and writer and actress Tina Fey were just a few of the stars in the stands at Arthur Ashe Stadium.

In full view of everyone, Sabalenka and Pegula delivered a ruthless display of baseline play that saw the outcome remain in doubt until the final point. In the end, Sabalenka, the world number two, held her nerve under Pegula's relentless pressure to win her first US Open and third major title overall, 7-5, 7-5. The 26-year-old is the first woman since Angelique Kerber in 2016 to win both hard-court Grand Slams in a single season.

“When we change ends, I always look up and see the celebrities,” Pegula said after the game. “It’s hard not to because they’re literally right in front of us. I was like, ‘Wow, there’s a lot of people here.’ I thought it was pretty cool and amazing to be able to play in front of them.”

Curry and his wife Ayesha arrived early to settle into their seats for the big show. After the game, Pegula revealed she received a pep talk from the Golden State Warriors point guard, whom she met at the Olympics last month.

“It’s a funny story, my husband has an iPhone named Steph Curry because he loves Steph Curry,” Pegula said. “If you connect to Bluetooth or send him something or AirDrop it, it’s ‘Steph Curry’s iPhone.’ So I left early and he texted me and he was so excited he wouldn’t say anything. I was like, ‘Please tell me you didn’t tell him about the iPhone thing.’ He was like, ‘Oh, yeah, I did.’ I thought that was really cute.”

“He said, ‘No, he loved it.’ I said, ‘Really? Or did he really think you were a bit crazy?’ I guess he thought it was kind of funny.”

Other celebrities spotted around Arthur Ashe Stadium on a fantastic night for women's tennis:

Former Saturday Night Live and “Mean Girls” writer Fey was happy to join in the festivities as she sat next to her husband, composer Jeff Richmond.

Rapper Flava Flav is one of the biggest and most visible supporters of women's sports, a fact cemented this summer with his sponsorship of the U.S. women's water polo team.

Lyles and Hamilton exchanged notes as they sat alongside Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, who was honored by the USTA on Friday with a special paving stone on the Avenue of Aces for her longtime support of the USTA Foundation, the philanthropic arm of the USTA.

It's not a championship weekend without the one and only Billie Jean King.
