Aryna Sabalenka, the world No. 1 tennis player, has responded to criticism of her US Open outfit, a Nike mesh jersey-style top worn over an orange sports bra and shorts. She defended her choice, saying 'Who cares what people think?' and that she loves the outfit. Sabalenka wore the divisive kit during her mixed doubles match with Novak Djokovic on August 25. She explained that the outfit was a tribute to playing in New York and that Nike had designed it to represent different sports for each Grand Slam. Despite some fans calling the outfit 'tacky' and a 'terrible design', Sabalenka remains unbothered and will wear it again during her first round of the women's singles at the US Open on August 31.
