Last year, the French Open banned Serena Williams from wearing her beautiful bodysuit on the court, with French Tennis Federation Bernard Giudicelli saying: “one must respect the game.” At this year tournament Serena Williams teamed up with fashion guru Virgil Abloh for Nike to make a powerful statement as she secured her 800th main-draw professional win.
The 23 time grand slam event winner beat Vitalia Diatchenko in three sets today.
