Tennis has taken the main center stage in the entertainment world recently with the Challengers movie’s promotion. Zendaya who plays the protagonist in the movie stunned the world with her exclusive red carpet look. Now, two tennis personalities are completely bowled over by the look. They are Stefanos Tsitsipas‘s former tennis player girlfriend Ayan Broomfield and America’s rising star in tennis, Jessica Pegula.

Zendaya’s stylist Law Roach has received applause for his exclusive take on tennis and fashion. This famous Hollywood celebrity’s UL premier look impressed Pegula so much that fans spotted the tennis prodigy sharing the look on her official Instagram story. The actress donned a collared but sleeveless custom-made all-white open-back gown by Thom Browne, which is further highlighted with a bow. This actress paired the dress with minimal diamond jewelry and white stilettos. Not only the tennis fraternity, but even the glamour world praised Zendaya’s fashionable take on tennis on the red carpet.

Along with Pegula, Stefanos Tsitsipas’s former tennis player girlfriend Ayan Broomfield took a jibe at Zendaya’s beauty. She shared a collage of the actresses’s photos in her Instagram story and captioned it- “Nah give her the crown this is BREATHTAKING.” Zendaya’s makeup artist Ernesto Casillas helped her to channel the Lancome beauty look. This look is highlighted with cheery lips and a soft glow. In a nutshell, from her UL premier look to her all-tour presences, Zendaya nailed it. She impressed her tennis fans with the film’s initial approach.

Glamour magazine wrote about Zenday’s look- “The year’s undisputed red-carpet queen, Zendaya, continues to serve look after look on the press tour for her new tennis drama, Challengers, and each outfit has perfectly combined preppy athleticism with classic femininity. It’s called commitment to the theme! The Vogue cover girl’s outfits have been beyond literal during this press tour, with tennis balls on her shoes and other fun details (think: a feathery tail) making the most of every promotional opportunity.”

Now Zendaya not only perfected her red carpet presence for Challenger but also received compliments from Brad Gilbert, Coco Gauff’s legendary coach. Gilbert compared Zendaya’s skills to one of his best pupils, reigning US Open champion, Coco Gauff.

Praising Zendaya’s hard work and skills in a podcast, Gilbert drew Gauff’s comparison and said– “Believe it or not actors got a lot of the same DNA as tennis players. So I really think that working with Zendaya kind of really maybe was impedance for good experience for working with Coco. Well take Z, she is driven to be the best she can and a lot of tennis players did.”
