Excerpts: 


InStyle Editors Attend the U.S. Open! Sharon Clott, Senior Features Editor (top right) "Watching the Williams sisters play each other was such a thrill. They're both incredibly talented and so fun to watch. Venus's serves are so strong and powerful. What surprised me most were Serena's reactions when she missed a ball or when she scored one against her sister. She had raw, intense emotion that was so magical to see in person. Everyone in the stadium knew that it was a special moment to see the Williams sisters compete in a year when Serena may win all four Grand Slam titles. And it was the match to be seen at—I spotted Oprah Winfrey, Kim Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid, Joe Jonas, Aziz Ansari, and Chris Tucker. When Serena went for the match point, not a sound could be heard throughout Arthur Ashe Stadium. I got chills!"
Kahlana Barfield, Fashion and Beauty Editor-At-Large (top left) "I'm a huge tennis fan, and having the opportunity to watch Serena and Venus Williams courtside at the US Open was completely surreal. The energy in the stadium was electric. Celebrities like Oprah Winfrey, Aziz Ansari, Kim Kardashian and Kendrick Lamar filled the stands. The crowd cheered for both sisters, as everyone could imagine how difficult it must have been for them to compete, knowing they're each other's biggest fans. They played their hearts out. I was just happy to be there to witness history."
