The biggest U.S. Open story of the day has to be Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet’s third public appearance as a couple in just under a week—first at Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour last Monday, then at an intimate New York Fashion Week dinner last night, and, today, at the U.S. Open, where they couldn’t keep their hands off of each other.
But Jenner and Chalamet were hardly the only famous faces in the crowd this weekend. We rounded up our favorite celebrity shots from Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, which marked a big weekend at the tournament—yesterday, Coco Gauff, at just 19, won her first U.S. Open title, the youngest American to win the tournament since Serena Williams in 1999. “I feel a little bit in shock at this moment,” Gauff told the crowd after her win, per People. “That French Open loss was a heartbreak for me, and that makes this moment even more sweeter than I could imagine.” She added “I’m just thankful for this moment. I don’t have any words for it, to be honest,” and gave a shoutout to her haters: she gave a nod to “the people who didn’t believe in me,” adding “To those who thought they were putting water on my fire, you were really adding gas to it.”
Today, Novak Djokovic won and paid tribute to Kobe Bryant; he put on a brightly-colored shirt with “Mamba Forever” and an image of the basketball legend on the front, and Bryant’s 24 jersey number on the back—in reference to Djokovic’s newly-earned 24th Grand Slam, per People. “I thought of doing this t-shirt eventually if I get the chance to win the tournament,” he said. “Kobe was [a] close friend. We chatted a lot about the winner’s mentality when I was struggling with an injury and trying to make my comeback, to work my way back to the top of my game. He was one of the people I relied on the most.”
He continued “What happened a few years ago, him and his daughter passing, hurt me deeply. I thought 24—it is the jersey he wore when he became a legend, of Lakers and world basketball, so I thought it could be a nice, symbolic thing to acknowledge him for all the things he has done.”
A truly bonkers amount of celebrities watched Gauff and Djokovic win this weekend—take a look for yourself.
