NEW YORK — The stars of sport, fashion and the arts were out in force to watch the US Open final between Aryna Sabalenka and Jessica Pegula on Saturday night. Olympic gold medalists Steph Curry and Noah Lyles, F1 star Lewis Hamilton, writer and actress Tina Fey were just some of the A-List stars in the seats on Arthur Ashe Stadium.

With all eyes on them, Sabalenka and Pegula put on a hard-nosed display of baseline tennis that saw the result stay in the balance until the final point. In the end, World No.2 Sabalenka kept her cool under relentless pressure form Pegula to win her first US Open and third major title overall, winning 7-5, 7-5. The 26-year-old is the first woman since Angelique Kerber in 2016 to sweep the hard-court Slams in a single season.

“On the changeover I’m always looking up and I see the celebrities,” Pegula said after the match. “It’s kind of hard not to because literally right in front of us. I was, like, wow, there’s definitely a lot of people here. I thought that was pretty cool and pretty amazing that I got to play in front of them.”

Curry and his wife Ayesha arrived early to get settled in their seats for the big show. After the match, Pegula revealed she got a pep talk from the Golden State Warriors point guard, who she met at the Olympics last month.

“Funny story, my husband, his iPhone name is Steph Curry because he loves Steph Curry,” Pegula said. “If you connect to bluetooth or send him something or AirDrop, it’s ‘Steph Curry’s iPhone’. So I kind of left early and he texted me and he was so excited, he didn’t want to say anything. I was like, Please tell me you did not tell him about the iPhone thing. He’s like, Oh, yeah, I did. I thought that was really cute.

“He was like, ‘No, he loved it’. I was like, ‘Did he? Or did he really think you were kind of crazy?’ I guess he thought it was pretty funny.”
